2018 Fearless 5K
Our vision is simple; we're working to create a society free from sexual violence. Our organization works aggressively to eliminate sexual violence in all of its forms and all places.
Since 1996 we have provided advocacy, resources, and training for organizations and individuals throughout Utah who are engaged in sexual violence prevention and response. We've worked to empower survivors to transform our community. As Utah's nationally-recognized sexual violence coalition.
Now in its 4th year, the Fearless 5K raises critical funds to support the life-changing work of UCASA and serves as a source of inspiration and hope for advocates and survivors of sexual assault alike. Proceeds from this year's Fearless 5K will support the critical work of the Start by Believing campaign at our coalition.

- Meets the requirements outlined in the Utah Confidential Communications Act and requirements set forth by Utah's funding agencies.
- Gives attendees information and tools to understand the role of sexual violence advocates.
- Supports attendees in recognizing and combating bias - both explicit and implicit.

The curriculum is twenty-four hours of statewide core topics presented by our staff and sixteen hours of community-specific topics facilitated by the needs of the local community.

We work with local communities to determine the course content of the 16 hours of community-specific content and any continuing education or professional development topics.
Course Overview
The Sexual Assault Counselor Training course is designed to meet the training needs of individuals who might respond to a victim of sexual violence. The course is meant to meet the needs of a variety of volunteers, staff, and allied professionals who consider themselves advocates—whether as law enforcement officers, prosecutors, volunteers, advocates, medical personnel, caseworkers, or educators. However, this course is not designed to provide the intricacies of the investigation, prosecution, evidence collection, or case management. This course is particularly helpful to individuals who provide many different types of services to victims of sexual violence seeking skill-based knowledge and tools for improved response and intervention.
A side benefit of the course is its multidisciplinary appeal to professionals not working directly with sexual violence issues who also want a better understanding of sexual assault intervention concepts and policies.
