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

["Langford, Linda" <>]

Hi Lauren,

You might find it helpful to review the materials from a webinar we held on 
March 8th entitled "Using New Student Orientation to Prevent Violence Against 
Women on College Campuses," which focused on using orientation strategically 
as a kick-off to a coordinated series of events. After a brief overview of 
the research supporting the need for ongoing, coordinated efforts, two campus 
speakers described their programs in a fair amount of detail.

You can find a description of the webinar and all of the materials here: 
http://higheredcenter.ed.gov/services/training/webinars/using-new-student-orientation-to-prevent-violence-against-women.
 Besides the full recording, other materials include a PDF of the slides, 
text-only closed captioning transcript, a resource list, handouts from each 
of the speakers, and a summary of participants' responses to two interactive 
chats we did during the webinar.

If you listen to the recording, you'll get to hear what it sounds like when 
your phone line disconnects while you're running a webinar. That was a first! 
:-) Luckily our speakers were still connected, so they carried on while we 
dialed back in.

I hope you find the information helpful.

Best,
Linda

Subject: Orientation & Sexual Violence Prevention

Hi all,

At Emory, we are figuring out the best way to integrate information about 
sexual violence into orientation, particularly primary prevention education 
and information about resources.

1) Is sexual violence a part of orientation/first year education at your 
university?  What are your learning outcomes?

2) What kind of programming format/content/time/etc. do you use?

3) Is there evidence that your orientation program/s are effective and, if 
so, for what?

If you would be willing to have my Primary Prevention of Sexual Violence 
Public Health intern contact you, please let me know as we would greatly 
appreciate your help.

My best,
LB
