["Wantland, Ross A" <>]

Hi Kim,
  My name is Ross Wantland, and I coordinate sexual assault education at the 
University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. My suggestion would be to utilize 
your local rape crisis center (who receive funding in part based on their 
outreach & workshop numbers) to develop and present workshops to your 
college. I'd heard about this law - and without funding, it sounds like a 
well-meaning and ridiculous step. But there are a ton of resources that you 
can pull from. Additionally, you'd be welcome to adapt our first year 
workshop outline to your college (I'll attach it, but the list members wont' 
receive it). If you'd like to find your closest sexual assault center, go to 
www.icasa.org (Illinois Coalition Against Sexual Assault) and select "Crisis 
Centers." You can search by zip code there.
  ICASA also has a law book online that explains Illinois laws around sexual 
violence and stalking. But I'm also attaching a handout I've made of the 
Illinois laws. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to contact 
me. Good luck!
In peace,
Ross Wantland

Subject: Illnois sexual assault awareness education law

The governor of IL signed into law last week a requirement that community 
colleges(and others)  "provide some form of sexual assault awareness 
education to all incoming students, whether through a seminar, online 
training, or some other way of informing students."
(effective 1/1/09)

We are a very large community college that serves a variety of types of 
students -many of whom bypass our formal orientation programs.

 What have other community colleges done with this type of mandate(unfunded)?
 What is the definition of "sexual assault education" that we need to use to 
comply with the letter and intent of the legislation.?

        The full act can be found at

http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/publicacts/fulltext.asp?Name=095-0764

Thanks for the book suggestion, Ben.  FYI I think it's safe to say that most 
of us do a great deal of work on intimate partner violence issues, both 
education/prevention and intervention, whether or not it's in our job titles. 
 Those on the list who work as independent speakers/performers most likely 
have a more specific focus.
Best,
Claire

Good afternoon,



I was wondering if anyone is aware of a gatekeeper-style of training aimed at 
increasing entry points to student support services for students affected by 
rape or sexual assault.  I am interested in something similar to the QPR 
model for suicide prevention that trains students, faculty, and staff to be 
better at responding to a friend or student who may come to them looking for 
help or guidance after an assault - mainly with referral skills and how not 
to shut someone down when they are reaching out.



I would appreciate any leads people may have.



Thanks,



Anna P.

Great question! We were also planning to develop a faculty/staff training at 
OSU, and would also be interested if anyone knows of other models out there.
Thanks much,
Linda

We have developed an 8 hour training for students, faculty, and staff to 
increase their ability to provide support and more importantly 
resources/referral on sexual assault, relationship violence, stalking, and 
cyberstalking. We have piloted the program for the past couple of years with 
our Residence Life department; the RAs and professional staff who have gone 
through the training have said they found it beneficial.
We have had a similar program for our sorority women for over five years and 
it has been quite successful. We started with Res Life since they already had 
some basic active listening/helping skills. This year, we are planning to 
expand the program into our athletic department, our corps of cadets, and our 
academic advising department. We will be adding in an active 
listening/helping skills component to those trainings since those groups have 
not necessarily been trained on those issues. The sorority program and the 
newer program operate on slightly different models; I'd be happy to share our 
curriculum for both with anyone who is interested. Since this listserv 
doesn't accept attachments, please email me directly at 
.
