Speakers Bureau
The CARE Speakers Bureau is made up of individuals who are willing to discuss personal experiences for the purpose of increasing awareness around the issues of emotional, verbal and physical abuse, sexual violence, gender issues, and personal safety.
Speakers Bureau
As friends and family members of survivors experience their own healing process, CARE also provides a Speakers Bureau for family and friends of survivors to share their stories.
Our goal is to raise awareness in an effort to create cultural change, decrease violence, and increase empathy at UCI and in the larger community. The Speakers Bureau reflects a support network for victims interested in seeking supportive connections and for community members to develop a sense of personal power in identifying and safely intervening in situations that may lead to sexual assault.
