"What's Your Why?" with Amber
Show Notes

Just as our survivors have unique and transformative stories to share--so too, do our advocates. This special series highlights a personal moment with an advocate as we chat with them about why they do this sometimes difficult work. 

To kick off this series, we're taking a moment to catch up with our Director of Client Services, Amber!  Amber has served in many roles at Branches and has a strong advocacy approach that focuses on housing first, being trauma-informed, and survivor centered interventions.   Today, we'll chat about why these things are so important to remember when working with survivors.  

Finally, the "Why" Series was created to bring to the light the complexity and beauty of the relationship between advocate and survivor and to intimately connect our listeners with the healing, reconstructive power of advocacy.  We hope you enjoy!
