Confidential Advisors (CAs or VCPs)
We believe it is important that everyone feels safe and respected within our association. That is why confidential advisors (CAs or VCPs in Dutch) are available to monitor the mental well-being of their fellow members of LPR. They serve as a first point of contact for members and provide assistance when needed. CAs are there for all members who have experienced or are experiencing unwanted behavior or feel unsafe or uncomfortable. The CAs can assist with questions or concerns about unwanted behavior, such as intimidation, bullying, or discrimination. Whether you need advice, want to discuss an incident, or simply wish to talk to someone in confidence, you can always reach out. All conversations are treated with strict confidentiality. Do not hesitate to seek help; simply having a listening ear can make a big difference.
Contact the CAs via vcp@hofdansen.nl or via a private message on Discord.

Chèrs Précieuskes,
I would like to introduce myself as one of the two confidential advisors of our wonderful association. I am Lisanne, 22 years old, and I am studying legal administration and HR at the ROC in Nijmegen. I have been a proud and happy member of LPR for nearly four years. Currently, I am doing a full-time internship at a rental agency, so if you ever need advice about renting housing, feel free to reach out to me about that as well. As a confidential advisor, I am almost always reachable via email, phone, text, and Discord. If there’s anything you’d like to talk about, don’t hesitate to get in touch: nothing is too small, and I’m happy to make time for you.
Chèrs Précieuskes,
You’ve probably seen me in dance class by now, but for those who still have no clue who this red-haired girl is, let me introduce myself: my name is Sophie, and I’m 22 years old. I’m currently in the fourth year of my bachelor’s degree in Art History at Radboud University. I absolutely love applied arts, still lifes, and especially anything involving apples—it’s all super fascinating to me! Besides my passion for art, I also love being creative myself (aside from court dancing, of course!). In my free time, you’ll often find me drawing, painting, etching, or making linocuts and woodcuts. And if I’m not doing that, I’m probably curled up with a good book.
I hope to be a safe space for anyone who has experienced something difficult, unpleasant, or troubling, and together, we can look at possible next steps (or not, if you prefer—that’s totally fine too!). Don’t be afraid to reach out if something’s bothering you. If you ever feel the need to chat or vent, feel free to send Lisanne or myself a message.
