Sexual Misconduct Prevention

Did you know that President Obama signed the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) amendments to the Jeanne Clery Act into law in March 2013?

VAWA, originally known as the Campus Sexual Violence Elimination (SaVE) Act, requires that education be delivered on this topic annually.

As research shows that 1 in 5 women will be sexually assaulted while attending college, we are committed to helping fraternities and sororities address the topic of sexual misconduct, assault and relationship violence prevention from a values-based perspective.

What’s more, we recognize that fraternity and sorority members have a unique opportunity to serve as change agents on their campuses. Taking a Stand: Preventing Sexual Misconduct on Campus challenges chapter members to recognize the warning signs and proactively intervene in situations where sexual misconduct may occur. Learn more about this comprehensive, research-based set of materials that equips chapter members with the necessary tools to be leaders in prevention on this topic. The materials were also designed to be compliant with the existing and new higher education requirements to address sexual violence on college campuses.
