The Toolkit for Preventing Dating Violence, Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault and Stalking in the Community College Context is designed to increase the capacity of community colleges to prevent interpersonal violence among students. It is organized in nine steps:
- Reflect on Past Efforts
- Identifying Your Community
- Identify and Engage Stakeholders
- Identify Needs and Assets
- Select Programs
- Tailor Programs
- Plan Your Evaluation
- Implement Programs
- Evaluate Progress and Share Results
The tools included were created based on findings from an accompanying literature review, which includes results from key informant interviews, surveys, and focus groups; peer-reviewed literature; and best practices for preventing interpersonal violence within the community college context.
