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

[Juliette Grimmett <>]

Dear Campus and Community Partners,

Chrysalis Network, the NC State University Counseling Center, and the NC State University Women’s Center are excited to bring you the 11th annual:

Solving the Campus Sexual Assault & Dating Violence Puzzle VIRTUAL International Conference.

This year’s conference theme is: Inspiring Action & Healing for Justice. We will highlight the courageous work of those on campuses and in the community who remain relentless in their push against the cultural norms of silence, victim-blaming, and minimization, to inspire action and healing for justice.

While “Puzzles”, as it has come to be known, facilitates learning opportunities in a traditional conference workshop format, it is also a space grounded in building community through relationships and wellness. Our virtual conference will offer a variety of opportunities for participants to connect with each other, experience mindfulness and wellness activities, and even win cash as part of daily engagement challenges and icebreaker games.

Can’t attend the entire live conference? No Problem! All sessions will be recorded and available for registrants to view for 3 months after the conference. You can still get CEs for viewing recorded sessions.

Conference Pricing
