As an advocacy intern at the Sexual Trauma Awareness & Response Center (STAR), I worked directly with survivors of sexual assault, in the hospital and in office. In office, I created and presented multiple reports for the use of the advocacy team in the Baton Rouge and New Orleans office, planned a potential fundraiser for STAR, filmed and edited a four episode prevention web series for STAR's YouTube channel, and answered the 24 hour crisis line. When on call after hours, I continued to answer the crisis line and accompanied victims to the hospital for their medical forensic exam.
Prevention Web SeriesThe video below is the first episode of the web series in which we discuss myths and misconceptions that STAR staff members believed before working for the anti-sexual violence movement.
