Review for Sexual Violence Center, Minneapolis, MN, USA
I took my training at the Sexual Violence Center in September of 2009. The training was expansive, eye opening, done by the staff and guest speakers. And the follow through with support from the staff is always consistent, educational, and complimented by straight forwardness and good humor. The intent of SVC to promote awareness is always foremost in any contact that I've had and then that is then forwarded on by myself as a volunteer.

I see every day the passion and the determination of the staff in promoting support to all who cross their doorstep, in working with other organizations to provide a consistent and cohesive outreach.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Perhaps the internal paperwork could be less, the weekend shifts could be broken down differently.
