The 180 Turning Lives Around Program offers services to survivors and their families affected by domestic violence and sexual assault. 180NJ has advocate programs in which civilian members of the community volunteer to provide confidential support and advocacy for the survivors. Volunteer advocates on the Domestic Violence Response Team (DVRT) and the Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) are an essential part of the empowerment process for survivors and their families. Members of the DVRT assist survivors in safety planning, legal rights, counseling and various other support services. Members of the SART provide emotional support, accompaniment during medical examinations, and criminal justice system procedures and service referrals. Interested applicants can see further information on the attached flyers. Training for each program will be provided to each successful applicants.
