LSU Lighthouse Advocate Training

7/23/2019 - 7/23/2019
8:30 AM - 4:30 PM
Location: Barnes and Noble @LSU Event Rm., 2 Union Square, Baton Rouge

The Lighthouse Program provides sexual and interpersonal violence prevention, advocacy, and support to the LSU campus community. The program assists student-survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, relationship violence and stalking. Lighthouse Advocates are specially trained University personnel who can provide confidential guidance and support to LSU students who have directly experienced interpersonal violence (sexual assault, domestic violence, relationship violence, and stalking) or who want to help a friend in need. 

The Lighthouse Program collaborates with campus and community partners to bring this trauma-informed Lighthouse Advocate Training to LSU?s campus. The goal of the Lighthouse Advocate Training is to identify and educate LSU faculty and staff on campus who will validate, support and advocate for survivors and students-at-risk of sexual and interpersonal violence. Faculty and staff who complete this training and display the Lighthouse symbol in or around their offices are committed to advocating for survivors and become confidential resources so that no student navigates the process alone. 
The Lighthouse Advocate Training is a full-day training. In the training, participants will learn appropriate helping skills, trauma-informed care strategies and resources available for individuals in need. 

Speakers include Crystal Loupe, PLPC; Susan Bareis, and MPH; Wes Heath, MA
