Understanding Sexual Violence
This multiple session curriculum offers an in-depth look at some of the root causes of sexual violence in our society. The curriculum is highly interactive and written for high school aged youth. It is made up of group discussion, debates, role-plays, and media arts projects. Topics include gender stereotypes, oppression, healthy relationships, teen dating violence, sexual violence, and community prevention strategies. The objective of this multiple session curriculum is to change community attitudes and beliefs about sexual violence in order to create more supportive communities for survivors, decrease norms that support sexually inappropriate behaviors, and eventually eliminate sexual violence in the community.Coming Winter 2010
