Growing Strong Sexual Assault Center reported around 430 clients in Central Illinois ranging from ages 4 to 80 years old were sexually assaulted or abused. 

You can help volunteer your time to help some of these people says Executive Director Cathy Byers.

There are only a couple of qualifications; commitment to and support sexual assault/abuse victims and must be at least 18 years of age. 

There is training that you must do to prepare for Growing Strong Sexual Assault Center.

The training will be taking place on November 6; it takes over a span of two weeks every Tuesday and Thursday. To sign up for volunteering call the Growing Strong Sexual Center at 217-428-0770.
