About the UCSB Rape Prevention Education Program:

The Rape Prevention Education Program is an integral part of the UCSB Women's Center. RPEP provides education about all forms of sexual violence but primarily sexual assault, abusive relationships and stalking.

The Women's Center uses a feminist approach to provide support, advocacy, resources and education to the UCSB community. We value and respect all genders, bodies, sexual orientations, and racial and ethnic identities while challenging all forms of oppression. We work towards creating a campus environment that is safe, equitable, and just.

We envision a world free of oppression and violence. We strive for inclusion and equity through our programs, services, and work. We celebrate the richness of our differences while working collectively to create a community of leaders, scholars, and global citizens for the future.
