This session will introduce participants to two nationally recognized sexual and relationship violence and stalking prevention programs that have been found to be effective through research, both separately and when combined. Bringing in the Bystander is an in-person prevention program that is based on the idea that all community members have a role to play in ending violence before, during, and after incidents occur. It is delivered in small groups by two facilitators in either multi-session (4.5 hours) or single session (90 minute) versions. Know Your Power is a bystander social marketing campaign that consists of a series of images which portray realistic and provocative scenarios that highlight a community responsibility approach to ending violence. This session will provide an overview of both programs, the research and evaluation behind them, how they can be customized to meet the needs of your unique campus, and next steps for beginning to implement them. There will be time for questions built in throughout the session.

This program is an introduction to the 20:1 Sexual Assault and Bystander Intervention Programs. During this session we will discuss how we created the 20:1 Program from the ground up. The audience will be introduced to the interactive components and go over the basics of our peer education program. We will discuss why Binghamton does not use a one size fits all program, but rather adapts our programming to the culture of the sub community that we are presenting to. We will discuss how to build a grass roots program at your institution.

Transgender and Gender Non-Conforming (GNC) students targeted for sexual and intimate partner violence face additional barriers to reaching out and receiving our services. It is essential that campuses ensure that their resources are welcoming and affirming. This session will touch briefly on SUNY wide resources and support for LGBTQ+ Trans* and GNC people who are disproportionately targeted and delve deeper into the micro messages and macro language that move us away from revictimizing these populations. Attendees will walk away with ideas on expanding their own affirming language, expanded ideas of gender and gender identity, and a better sense on how to meet the needs of Trans and GNC students across our campuses.

IHEs have a moral and legal imperative to address sexual violence on campus, as well as an obligation to foster a community that values learning, respect for others, and tolerance. Despite political, legal, and moral pressure to meet these obligations, few models exist to guide IHEs in these efforts. Over the past two years, more than 65 IHEs have mobilized to comprehensively address campus sexual violence guided by Culture of Respect’s signature program, the Collective. This program uses a public health framework to guide institutional stakeholders through a step-by-step strategic assessment and planning process to improve prevention and response, augmented by collaboration with peers across the nation, technical assistance from Culture of Respect staff, and ongoing professional development. In this session, the presenters will provide an overview of the Collective model, and present a preview of findings from the current cohort’s baseline self-assessment responses, highlighting: the extent to which institutions are complying with federal regulations and guidance; the ways in which institutions are going above and beyond federal guidance; the opportunities for growth; and what we still need to know about the field to better meet the needs of survivors and the institutions that support them.

Research about campus sexual violence is underway across the United States, but there is much more to be learned about “what works.” Few evidence-based models exist to guide IHEs in their efforts to comprehensively address campus sexual violence, but Culture of Respect is working diligently to fill that gap. Over the past two years, more than 65 IHEs have mobilized to comprehensively address campus sexual violence guided by Culture of Respect’s signature program, the Collective. This program guides institutional stakeholders through a step-by-step strategic assessment and planning process to improve prevention and response, guided by the best practices explicated in our CORE Blueprint. The Collective is augmented by collaboration with peers across the nation, technical assistance from Culture of Respect staff, and ongoing professional development. In this session, the presenters will lead an activity to help participants think critically about what types of evidence can be used to make strategic decisions about how campuses address sexual violence. They will also provide a rich overview of the Collective, a program designed to support evidence-based decision-making, and will highlight the Prevention Programming Matrix, a free tool institutions can utilize to identify prevention education programming for campus stakeholders based on its level of evidence, theoretical basis, primary audience, cost, and other factors
