Prevention Education
In moving toward our vision of creating holistic modes of healing and accountability we launched the Community Initiatives Program in 2006. This new program is a merging of both our Adult and Teen Education department, and will address entire communities through interactive education while intergrating rape crisis services, direct health care, community education and organizing, relationship building and accountability models.We offer training on various topics to youth and adults in schools, social service agencies, and community organizations. Presentation topics include:
- Sexual Assault and Rape Prevention Education
- Sexual Harassment
- Healthy Dating
- Gender Roles and Sexism
- Anti-Oppression
- Drug Facilitated Sexual Assault
- Internet/Technology Based Violence
- Peer Education

Training & Technical Assistance
Our Recruitment & Training Program works to build a community of activists willing to struggle, learn and work toward individual and community healing. The training includes education on dynamics of sexual violence in diverse communities, dialogues about challenging oppression, and skill building in crisis intervention, counseling, advocacy, and outreach. Through ongoing support and training of our volunteer pool of Hotline Counselors, Medical Advocates, In-Person Counselors and Outreach Volunteers and interns, we are able to provide quality peer-based services free of charge.
