November Gender-Based Violence Prevention Collaborative Meeting
November 24 @ 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm
Join the WSCADV Prevention Team and preventionists from across WA state for the November Gender-Based Violence Prevention Collaborative!
We’ll be hearing from Nikki Van Wagner (she/her pronouns), Program Consultant for the YES! Sexual Violence Prevention Program with the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI). Nikki will be giving us an overview of the YES! Program, which aims to reduce rates of sexual violence among students in Washington middle schools. The YES! Program helps to ensure that all students are safe, supported, and free from all forms of abuse. Schools apply strategies that: create protective environments, build positive social norms and youth-adult partnerships, and center students’ needs and experiences.
We’ll also be providing an update on the progress of the Narrative Change toolkit that our subcommittee has been working on!
