Advocate Privilege: Embrace Your Voice!

Your Voice Matters.

Thank you for supporting Advocate Privilege in Ohio!

As part of OAESV's effort to advocate for a proposed bill that would establish privileged communications between survivors and rape crisis advocates, we are seeking your input. In short, why is Advocate Privilege important to you?

This brief survey allows you to share your voice in as much or as little detail as you want, either anonymously or with your name. While there are no guarantees that we will utilize your words in our advocacy efforts, we think it's important to hear from the people who are most affected by our work - survivors, concerned citizens, advocates...you!

Please note that you will not be able to return to this survey to edit your responses. If you have any questions about this survey or OAESV's efforts related to Advocate Privilege, please contact Taylr Ucker-Lauderman, Director of Communications, at communications@oaesv.org.

Thank you for speaking out.
