Training
If you would like your team to have a comprehensive understanding of SARC Services and the sexual violence support network in your area, please contact us to arrange an awareness raising session. We can also provide training around the impact of sexual violence.
Knowledge of the support available and how to respond to a disclosure of sexual violence will ensure beneficiaries will receive the best support.
