About our training at Canberra Rape Crisis Service:
CRCC aims to educate individuals, the community and members of other
organisations about the reality of sexual assault; and how to respond to
and support victims and survivors of sexual assault. CRCC is committed
to advocacy, education, skills training and can assist organisations in
the creation of appropriate policies and procedures to address issues
surrounding sexual assault. It is our hope that by giving people the
skills and confidence to approach the issue of sexual assault, we can
begin to erode the stigma and help survivors.
At CRCC we take an inclusive approach to our trainings; using
role-plays, interactive activities and open discussions. CRCC aims to
create a training opportunity which is useful and memorable for anyone
wishing to learn more about working with people who are survivors of
sexual assault.
