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

[Michael Domitrz <>]

Ask the Athletic Director WHICH of the coaches would be your best ally  
for speaking about this issue.  Then TEAM UP with THAT coach.  Having  
a coach or someone affiliated with college sports co-present gives an  
instant level of credibility with coaches (when I speak to athletic  
departments, they like to focus on my years as a college athlete and  
as a coach when introducing me).

Plus, co-facilitating with a coach will help you better prepare  
because you can share back and forth with the coach.  You'll get a  
much better feeling for their culture.

Hi all,

I’ve been asked by athletics on campus to do an hour-long training  
with the coaches focused on helping them identify students of concern  
and the best way to intervene.  This request is in reaction to Yeardly  
Love and wanting to help coaches recognize red flags and intervene  
early.  Seems like they are wanting something interactive (similar to  
the Step Up curriculum).  I’m wondering whether anyone has done  
anything like that and if so, whether they’d be willing to share with  
me their curriculum.  I’m not too familiar with sports culture and  
want to be thoughtful about preparing something that will speak to  
them and be helpful.

Any help, much appreciated.

Cathy
