A sociodrama on effective responses and communication with sexual assault survivors

Join the Nova Southeastern University (NSU) Tampa Bay Regional Campus on Thursday, May 16, 2019 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. as we experience the emotional and mental state of a survivor while assessing the situation through the eyes of a first responder. Participants will engage in real-life scenarios and discuss relevant, effective interventions.
