Dear Colleagues:
As you may know, November 15 marks the beginning of Sexual Assault Awareness 2004, a week of campus-wide events aimed at educating students on issues related to sexual assault. As part of Sexual Assault Awareness Week, the University of Cincinnatis Womens Center (UCWC) is offering two faculty trainings on how to respond to student disclosures of sexual assault, intimate partner violence and stalking.

Topics covered:
University of Cincinnati protocol for responding to sexual violence
Tips on effectively responding to disclosures
Resources available on campus and in the community
What you can do as faculty to help promote a Just community, free of sexual and gender violence
