Durham Rape Crisis Centre
Board Member (June 2023–July 2025) | Volunteer Training Guest Speaker (May 2015–January 2019)

As a Board Member, I chaired the fundraising committee, attended SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) meetings, conducted performance reviews, and spoke at the 2023 Take Back the Night event, including leading the march (with a megaphone!) 

As a Volunteer Training Guest Speaker, I spoke with volunteers training for the crisis line. I shared my personal experiences with sexual violence, discussed centering survivors in support work, and reflected on my own crisis line experience to educate and prepare volunteers for working with survivors.
