The movement nurtures survivors of sexual misconduct and provides necessary resources for individuals who have previously or are currently experiencing trauma from a sexual assault or other sexual misconduct.

PROGRAM LEARNING OUTCOMES


By participating in the Are YOU in the Know? program, students construct visual representations of the statistics presented to them.

By participating in the focus groups and online surveys, students assess the programs and their newfound knowledge.

By participating in the More Than “No Means No” program, students distinguish between the myths and facts of sexual assaults and misconduct.



By participating in the S.A.S.S. groups, students articulate their feelings and experiences in a healthy manner while relating to fellow survivors of sexual misconduct.

By participating in the Super S.A.S.S. program, stand-out leaders translate their knowledge and comfort to assist future survivors of sexual assault.

By participating in the WHAT You Know program, students recognize acceptable and unacceptable behaviors while relating the issues of sexual misconduct to themselves on a personal level.



Focus Groups After certain programs, participants will be invited to

participate in a focus group to discuss the program itself, things that went well, and areas for improvement.

Sticky Note Board As they leave, students will receive a sticky note and be

instructed to place it on a large white board with sections labeled as Excellent, Ok, Not Great, and Terrible.

Where they place the sticky note represents their overall rating of the program.

Online Surveys The students will slide their IDs upon entering the program

for attendance and survey purposes. Attendees of the program will receive a survey via e-mail to assess a particular program.
