Volunteer Victim Advocate
What does a Volunteer Victim Advocate do?
ATV's Victim Advocate program is one of the most challenging and rewarding opportunities we offer.
A Victim Advocate responds to calls 24 hours a day from crime victims, law enforcement, and/or hospital staff for victims of violent crime. They meet with victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and other violent crimes to:
- Provide emotional support, advocacy, crisis intervention, and services referrals
- Help victims understand their rights and options
- Inform victims of the services Alternatives to Violence has to offer
