Since January 2009 training included cultural competency
Members of the Anti-Violence Community such as NCASV, RCC, FACT, Safe House, and JNWC/UNLV present information on specialized topics including:
Power and Control, Submission vs. Consent, Media Literacy, Rape Culture, Pornography, Sexuality, Sexual Assault, The Role of Alcohol & Rape Drugs, Masculinity and Violence, Male Victims & Marginalized Communities, Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, Effects on Victims, Stalking and Cyberstalking, and Sexual Harrassment
Presentation Topics
1. Rape Culture, Gender and the Media: The focus of this presentation is to give a larger social context to the epidemic of violence and sexual assault. It uses media outlets, primarily in popular culture, to analyze the connection between gender roles in the media and violence.
2. Drug Facilitated Rape: This provides an overview of drug facilitated rape by providing examples of the multiple forms of drugs used in rape cases. It also includes statistical information from LV Metro and The Rape Crisis Center of Southern Nevada.
3. Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Facts and Resources: This is a straight forward, lecture formatted presentation that includes state and federal definitions of battering, domestic violence, sexual assault and rape and provides an overview of campus and community resources.
Presentation Topics
4. Understanding "No": The presentation is interactive and gives scenarios in which the audience will judge whether the sexual act was consensual or by force. Also discusses dating violence & healthy relationships.
5. Same Sex Violence: This presentation goes over the lack of adequate resources available to LGBT victims of violence and also addresses misconceptions about violence in the LGBT community.
6. “Why do they stay?”: This is an interactive game formatted presentation and is best suited for groups of no more than 15. The “game” places participants in the real-life choices of victims of violence, highlighting limited access to resources and funds, with the ultimate goal of addressing the victim-blaming stigmatized question of, “Why do they stay? Why don’t they just leave?”
Why engage Men and Boys?
Nevada is 4th in the nation for Sexual Assault, and
1st for Death as a result of Domestic Violence
25% of women and 7% of men will be victims of domestic violence or partner rape.
Six months following an experience of domestic violence, 32% of battered victims are victimized again
