Left of Bang: Sex and Relationship Education as Violence Prevention
This program augments the standard SHARP training, empowering all new Soldiers in the 19th ESC with bystander intervention skills and a comprehensive knowledge of sexual assault and harassment.

The Risk of Reporting: “She Made a Report of Rape and Ended up in Handcuffs

Betraying the Badge: When Police Are Perpetrators of Sexual Violence
From sexual harassment and assault within the workplace to domestic violence off-duty, to officers preying on vulnerable populations and survivors in the reporting process, sexual violence comes down to abuse of power.

Speakers:

Comprehensive Victim Interviewing
After helping victims to recall and share details about their sexual assault, investigators must piece these details together with other information and evidence, to compile a linear and evidence-based account of the crime.

“Changing the Shape” How an Expert Advisory Workgroup is Shifting the Culture at their Institution
In 2018, MSU faced an institutional crisis when over 200 survivors gave victim impact statements at the sentencing hearing of the former MSU physician who had abused them over a 20-year period. 2018 was also a breaking point for many other survivors — hundreds of MSU students, faculty, staff, and alumni came forward to report abuse and harassment they had been afraid to report for years, even decades. The university had created a culture in which survivors were afraid to report, and those who did disclose abuse often felt re-victimized and re-traumatized. In response to this crisis, the Relationship Violence and Sexual Misconduct Expert Advisory Workgroup was formed.
