Overview

The Men's and Women's Programs: Ending Rape through Peer Education is a guide for college administrators and faculty members looking to create a sexual assault prevention and education program to provide men and women with the knowledge, skills, and support systems needed to become active participants in the prevention of rape. It contains detailed scripts which outline how to set up and implement a program and provides instructions on running a training course and recruiting peer educators. Handouts and worksheets are included to assist in the training process, as well as for peer educators to use when working with participants. This revised version of the program features the inclusion of a program targeted at female participants, as well as completely updated scripts, handouts, and resources. Accompanying the text are two guides (sold separately) for peer educators to use when working with program participants: The Men's Program and The Women's Program.
