Sydney Conrad, a seasoned advocate and educator, brings over a decade of experience in providing education and training on abuse recognition, healthy relationship behaviors, and support resources for victims. As the former director of education and training at My Sister's House, a tri-county service agency for individuals who have experienced abuse in their relationships, Sydney honed her expertise in addressing domestic violence and its impact on individuals and communities.

Sydney's unwavering commitment to advocacy and her deep understanding of abuse dynamics make her an invaluable resource in raising awareness and addressing the critical issue of domestic violence.
