Sexual Violence Prevention

text saying "#rethinkstrength i am strong enough to.... gender based violence"

Working in collaboration with other areas of the College, the Centre is involved in the development of resources and learning opportunities to increase awareness and prevention of sexual violence. Our efforts include the co-development of online training for employees on Centennial’s Sexual Assault and Sexual Violence Policy, engaging students in dialogue about sexual assault prevention during Orientation and Service Fairs, creating print resources and campaigns, involving students in raising awareness through our student contests and delivering Bringing in the Bystander training.

The Centre also coordinates activities for the annual White Ribbon campaign in November as well as the December 6th campaign to end gender-based violence. For more information about sexual violence prevention, please check out the College's website on Sexual Violence.
