A staff attorney at the Iowa Coalition Against Sexual Assault is working with an advocate who is trying to assist an inmate with PREA-related issues. IowaCASA has requested four (4) coaching sessions to help their legal team and others who support member agencies with advocacy of incarcerated survivors. More specifically, the coaching will focus on requests made by incarcerated survivors and appropriate advocacy services. IowaCASA is sending a survey to member organizations to learn their specific needs, including how to support incarcerated survivors. Based on the survey results, JDI may also provide a virtual training for member agencies up to two (2) hours in length. Ms. Tara Graham, JDI?s National Program Director, and Ms. Nicole de la Torre, Program Director, will co-lead the coaching sessions. If there is a virtual training, they will develop training materials and co-present the session. Ms. Graham will write the PRC final report.
