Volunteer as a Sexual Assault Counselor as a form of resilience, as a form of healing, as a form of love!
SFWAR provides free California Certified Sexual Assault Counselor Training to prepare volunteers to become rape crisis counselors. Sexual Assault Counselors staff our 24-hour hotline, provide medical advocacy and accompaniment to survivors at San Francisco General Hospital, provide in-person individual counseling, and facilitate support groups.
