We are looking for people who want to join our effort to return dignity to victims of sexual abuse. This can and does take a multitude of forms. We are actively seeking volunteers and interns, as well as, people that would like to join the team and help steer our vision as a board member.

Also, there is a substantial need for people who have strong writing and/or marketing attributes or people just willing to help us get the word out on the streets about the important work we are doing.

We are particularly interested in people who will partner with us in our mission by engaging in clothing and/or financial drives as an individual and/or within an organization which they may be a member.

About The Grateful Garment Project

Location:

1777 Hamilton Avenue, Suite 2280, San Jose, CA 95125, US

Mission Statement

The mission of The Grateful Garment Project is to ensure that every victim of a sexual crime who crosses the threshold of a SART facility or who seeks medical attention and/or law enforcement involvement is provided with whatever new clothing, toiletry, snack items and miscellaneous items they may require to reduce any future impact on their being.

Description

The Grateful Garment Project is a non-profit organization whose entire mission is to assist in the process of returning dignity to victims of sexual violence. We accomplish this by providing additional resources and tools to Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) facilities, Community Based Organizations (CBO), hospitals and medical facilities, and law enforcement and social agencies. These resources could be as simple as a pairs of socks for a victim, or as technical as implements utilized in the SART exam process. Our scope is wide but our purpose is narrow: To reduce any further negative impact on victims of sexual assault.
