LOOKING TO ADVANCE YOUR INSTITUTION’S EFFORTS TO ADDRESS SEXUAL VIOLENCE?
Applications to join Cohort 9 are open! Submit your application and letter of support before applications close on December 31, 2024.
This ambitious two-year program brings together institutions of higher education who are dedicated to ending campus sexual violence and guides them through a rigorous process of self-assessment and targeted organizational change.
Each diverse cohort relies on an expert-developed public health framework, cross campus collaboration, and peer-led learning to make meaningful programmatic and policy changes. Participating institutions receive strategic support and technical assistance throughout the process, as well as detailed documentation of campus-initiated changes that support survivors, prevent sexual violence, and communicate that violence is unacceptable.
COLLECTIVE TIERS
Institutions of higher education can apply to join the Collective starting in August and ending in November of each year. The program is available in two models in order to provide colleges and universities with more options for how to engage with NASPA and Culture of Respect.
