Prevention Education
Preventing sexual violence, intimate partner and domestic violence, human trafficking, and stalking begins with education. The Survivor Advocacy Outreach Program (SAOP) offers interactive workshops, school-based programs, and community education to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to create safer, violence-free communities. We provide age-appropriate education, bystander intervention training, and resources for schools, workplaces, and community organizations.
