Title: Futures Without Violence

 

Dear Colleagues,

We wanted to share some new resources for college campus health centers and students: the brand new Sex, Relationships and Respect Safety Card, Handbook, and Training Slides, now available through the Futures Without Violence online store. These resources have been revamped to address dating/sexual violence on college campuses and promote prevention. 

For instruction on how to integrate this approach, please join us on an upcoming webinar:

Campus Sexual and Dating Violence:
The Role of Campus Health Centers

Wednesday, August 8th, 2018
10:30-12pm PST/ 11:30-1pm MT/ 12:30-2pm CT/ 1:30-3pm ET

Intimate partner and sexual violence (IPV/SV) are highly prevalent on college campuses, impacting student health and educational attainment. Campus health centers are a vital component of campus-wide efforts to prevent and respond to IPV/SV. Though survivors are often discouraged from reporting or discussing their experiences through traditional pathways, health care providers on campuses are in a unique position to offer support, as well as to provide universal education about healthy relationships and how violence can affect health and academic performance. This session will provide tools and resources for campus health center staff and administrators to address (IPV/SV) in their clinical practice, as well as engage in a range of campus-wide efforts. Presenters will outline best practices for implementing a comprehensive IPV/SV protocol that includes staff training, routine assessment in clinical encounters, student outreach, and partnership with other campus departments and community-based victim services providers.

This webinar is co-hosted by Futures Without Violence Health Resource Center and the American College Health Association.  

Presenters:

Virginia Duplessis, MSW, Futures Without Violence; Jennifer Jacobsen, MA MPH, Grinnell College; Kim Webb, MEd, LPC, Washington University in St. Louis; Trent Claypool, PsyD, University of Colorado Colorado Springs

CMEs are available for MDs and DOs, certificates of completion are available for all attendees. Futures Without Violence’s National Health Resource Center on Domestic Violence is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
