    Why Advocate Credentialing Matters (Even When It’s Optional) with Elyse McConnell of OVWA

    What does it really mean to strengthen advocates and why does it matter for survivors? In this episode, we sit down with Elyse McConnell, Executive Director of the Ohio Victim Witness Association (OVWA) to talk about the systems, standards, and support shaping victim advocacy across Ohio. We also break down the Ohio Advocate Network (OAN)—what it is, who it’s for, and how the credentialing process works. If this episode was helpful, share it with a colleague or someone new to the field. And if you’re thinking about taking the next step in your advocacy work, consider exploring OAN and what credentialing could look like for you.

    What Nonprofit Communicators Need Right Now: Stories, Strategy, and Staying Human

    What does it really take to communicate about hard things in a way that actually connects? In this episode, Laurie, OAESV's Resource & Engagement Manager, takes you inside her experience at Create Good, a conference for nonprofit communicators, and unpacks what it means for those of us working in sexual violence response and prevention. From burnout and “doing more with less,” to storytelling that centers dignity (not pity), to navigating AI, social media shifts, and internal expectations, this episode is a frank reflection on the future of nonprofit communications and how we show up in it. If you’ve ever wondered if communications work really matters in nonprofit spaces, this conversation will remind you: it does.

    AI and the Future of Survivor Advocacy with Chad Sniffen of me too. International

    Can AI ever be trauma-informed? Never in a million years did we think we'd ask that question. Artificial intelligence is already shaping the lives of survivors and the work of advocates. In this episode of Teal Talk, Laurie sits down with Chad Sniffen, Director of Digital Experience and Safety at me too. International, to explore the impact of AI on the anti-violence movement. This conversation is both practical and philosophical, offering advocates guidance on drafting policies, protecting survivor data, and navigating a rapidly evolving digital landscape. AI isn’t going away. The question is: how do we engage with it responsibly? Two of many trauma-informed ChatBots referenced by Chad are Ruth and Aimee Says.

  4. Survivor-Centered Spiritual Care with Brenda Glass of The Brenda Glass Multipurpose Trauma Center

    Survivor-Centered Spiritual Care with Brenda Glass of The Brenda Glass Multipurpose Trauma Center

    Many survivors turn to faith or spirituality first after experiencing trauma, but those spaces can be both sources of comfort and harm. In this episode of Teal Talk, we’re joined by Brenda Glass, Founder and CEO of the Brenda Multi-Purpose Trauma Center, to explore survivor-centered spiritual care. Brenda shares how belief systems shape healing, how trauma can disrupt spiritual connection, and what it looks like to support survivors without imposing faith or reinforcing shame. This conversation is especially relevant for advocates working alongside survivors who are navigating spirituality, belief, and meaning after sexual violence, and for anyone interested in holistic, trauma-informed healing.
