Education & Prevention
Education and prevention are crucial pieces in safeguarding individuals from the threat of sexual violence. An educated public is a prepared public. As an organization that strives to create a community free from sexual violence, it is integral to prevent it before it happens. That is why SARC invests in bringing awareness to key topics such as consent, healthy relationships, safe boundaries, communication, and other positive measures promoting autonomy and security.
Identify, Respond, Prevent
Our team works diligently to educate public agencies and to empower the community to recognize, prevent, and respond to sexual assault.
- By working with local youth programs, we hope to implement strategies to prevent violent behavior. We strive to help reduce risk factors and encourage the development of healthy relationships.
- By visiting local workplaces and businesses, we hope to express the importance of respectful professional relationships. We guide professionals on how to identify and respond to sexual assault and harassment.
- By participating in local events and activities, we hope to spread awareness of sexual assault. We emphasize the importance of personal safety and survivor support in the broader community.
