Simply put, knowledge is power. The more we can inform and educate people about domestic violence and sexual assault, the closer we can get to eliminating it. Common statistics illustrate just how much our society, on both a local and national level, is affected by domestic violence and sexual assault. There are things you can do, on both personal and community levels, to help prevent domestic violence and sexual assault.

Trained educators are available to train and educate health-care professionals, law enforcement officials, members of the clergy and other faith-based leaders, community organizations, corporations, and professional associations on the dynamics of domestic violence and sexual assault. If you are interested in scheduling a training seminar for your group or workplace, please contact the Prevention Education Department.
