For March, MOmentum featured two guests from member agencies. Sara Cooper from MOCSA and Jessica Hill from Safe House of Southeast Missouri. As part of our campaign for Sexual Assault Awareness Month, MOCADSV created a social media toolkit, available for member agencies as well as the general public, to aid with the recruitment of hospital advocate volunteers. Building on that campaign, we focused our March MOmentum Live on building and engaging your volunteer force.
