CALCASA has been working in collaboration with the Legal Aide Society-Employment Law Center of San Francisco to provide you with information regarding Employment Rights and Protections for Sexual Assault survivors. As we reported in previous blog posts, we just completed a series of Legal Advocacy Regional Training Institutes with Anya Lakner and the Employment Law Center of San Fransisco.
Unfortunately, Anya Lakner has since left the Legal Aide Society-Employment Law Center of San Francisco but during the Legal Advocacy Training in Burbank, CA, she offered to share some important information about Employment Rights for Sexual Assault Survivors. You can listen to Anya’s podcast here:

While there, she created curriculum and facilitated groups for both young children and teens as a part time Youth Specialist. She was also a part time Prevention Educator and was responsible for training and conducting public speaking presentations to diverse audiences on issues pertaining to Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault. Throughout her five years at the agency, she also did a combination of Legal Advocacy, Court Accompaniment, Emergency Room Response, Crisis Intervention and Volunteer Program Coordinator.
