Dr. St. Germain will join other Valley leaders who share the mission of providing education, training and mentorship to organizations and individuals looking to provide support services to those who suffer from domestic and sexual abuse throughout Arizona.
鈥溒呱悠 has a strong tradition of commitment to public service in those communities where our students, faculty and staff, live and work,鈥 said Dr. St. Germain. 鈥淚t is our responsibility to educate and support students committed to public service, in order to help prepare them to work in organizations that serve abused and neglected children as well as sexual and domestic violence victims, such as those within the Arizona Child Family and Family Advocacy Network.鈥
Preparing advocacy centers in Arizona and the professionals so they can properly respond to violence and sexual assault is a vital part to further reduce short-term and long-term effects caused by domestic and sexual violence. In 2013, 35 programs in Arizona served 1,796 victims of domestic violence in one 24-hour period[1]. In order to continue to provide support services for victims, it is imperative that access to education and guidance be made available for community resources like ACFAN.
