Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

["Chad Sniffen" <>]

There is a blog post by a survivor who was repeatedly triggered by her
campus' rape awareness efforts that can be found at the link below, as
well a good discuss of being triggered by prevention education in the
comments. This is definitely information that rape prevention educators
should consider when planning their activities:

I disagree with many of the comments that information-based awareness
should not be done, but it is important to consider the impact on
survivors at different stages of recovery when educators think about how
they are going to educate.
