Volunteer Advocacy

Reach Counseling provides crisis intervention and emotional support 24/7 to survivors of sexual abuse and their friends/family with the help of Volunteer Advocates. Volunteer Advocates are on call nights, weekends, and holidays when the Reach office is closed.

Volunteer Advocates are trained to provide emotional support, crisis intervention, information and resources to survivors of sexual abuse and assault in Winnebago County. Advocates provide these services over the phone or in person at a local hospital. Advocates work alongside medical and legal professionals to ensure survivors are supported while navigating these processes, reducing further trauma and re-victimization while tending to a survivor’s emotional needs.
