SUMMARY OF PRESENTATION: Mrs. Coleman will focus on prevention of sexual violence on college campuses as a human rights issue. She will also explore the impact that sexual assault has on victims/survivors and the community. There will be a discussion of the ways in which the campus can work collaboratively with the community to foster cultural change and create safer spaces on an off campus. She will also address the importance of inclusion and diversity in prevention, outreach and response efforts. There will be time for discussion and questions.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

1. To identify sexual assault.

2. To identify the patterns and prevalence of victimization on college campuses.
