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

[Terri Nelson <>]

Hello all.

I've been a member of this list for a long, long time (perhaps since the beginning?) and in many roles including at a local RCP and university, statewide programs, and via national programs and consulting. I've come to know many of you along the way.  I want to extend a special thank you to Claire Kaplan for keeping this list going and keeping us connected. 

I am also writing to let you know that Coping Resources is unexpectedly needing to close at the end of this year after 25 years of serving survivors and professionals. We cannot, in good conscience, pass on an outrageous price increase by our printer (over 100%) to the nonprofits we serve. Many of you are familiar with our specialized resources over the years--including for LGBTQ+ and male survivors.

We realized this crisis and difficult decision allows us to offer an exciting opportunity for organizations that continue to serve survivors. We have found a way to make our publications available in perpetuity via a content copyright license. The license allows you to reprint and edit our publications to adapt them to your needs. Your organization will own the right to reprint/edit our copyrighted material with each license (title) you purchase. For more information and to see a review of the copyright content license, please visit us at www.CopingResources.com before our last day on 12.15.24.

Thank you wholeheartedly for all that you do for survivors and for the prevention of sexual assault. There are challenging times ahead, especially for persons who have been marginalized and oppressed including BIPOC and LGBTQ+ persons.  Let's keep moving forward to ensure all survivors get the compassionate care they deserve. 

Together in peace. Take care of yourself and each other.
