About Resilience for Advocates through Foundational Training (RAFT): The team at RAFT understands the struggles that come with working as a sexual and domestic violence advocate. Everything from the inability to switch roles when you get home, to the compassion fatigue that robs you of your ability to empathize. And let's not forget plain-old exhaustion. As a person who's dedicated your life to the well-being of others, we'd like to provide you with a workshop to provide you with critical tools and relaxation techniques that help improve your own well-being and build resilience.

About the Trainer - Jeremie Miller: Jeremie works with RAFT delivering free training to sexual violence and domestic violence advocates, teaching tools they can use to build resilience to compassion fatigue and burnout. Jeremie has experience working with people who committed harm as a program worker and teacher in the corrections system where he had his own experience with compassion fatigue and burnout, leading to a career change. Jeremie has worked with survivors as a counselor and trainer on a crisis and suicide prevention hotline.
