Department Purpose The UC Davis Center for Advocacy, Resources & Education (CARE) provides anti-oppressive and trauma-informed primary prevention, education, and advocacy to UC Davis students, faculty, staff, and affiliates who have been impacted by sexual assault, sexual harassment, sexual exploitation, intimate partner violence, stalking, and gender identity and sexual orientation-based harassment. CARE approaches our work with a dedication to honoring each individual for who they are, the identities they hold, and the intersections of their experience. The CARE program exists to provide confidential crisis counseling and advocacy for UC Davis students, staff and faculty who have experienced sexual harassment, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, intimate partner violence, and stalking. Victim services include, but are not limited to, crisis intervention, safety planning, assistance with accessing victim’s rights and accommodations, case management, and assistance and accompaniment throughout the administrative and criminal reporting processes. Victims may access services at CARE by scheduling an appointment or by coming to the office during business hours. CARE also ensures emergency response during non-business hours. CARE is an independent office, with no reporting responsibility to Title IX or campus police. CARE also leads campus-wide efforts to prevent all forms of sexual violence, including sexual harassment, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, intimate partner violence, and stalking. CARE designs and delivers a variety of educational programs, trainings for professionals, and awareness events and materials to support the mission of UC Davis. CARE staff collaborate extensively with campus and community partners to ensure comprehensive and inclusive advocacy and prevention services at UC Davis and UC Davis Health. Job Summary Reporting to the Assistant Director, the Victim Advocate for CARE is an experienced professional with in-depth knowledge in the overall field of crisis counseling and advocacy for survivors of sexual harassment, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, intimate partner violence, stalking, and harassment based on gender identity and sexual orientation. This position works directly with victims of violence and abuse, providing in-person confidential crisis counseling, risk assessment and safety planning, advocacy, and accompaniment. Given the nature of the work, this position requires frequent problem solving and analysis of unique and high-risk situations, strong skills to manage one’s own trauma-exposure response, and excellent judgement to know when supervision and consultation is necessary.
