Bystander Intervention: Building the Evidence Base for Sexual and Domestic Violence Prevention

Monday, June 26, 2017 at 2pm Eastern

We hope you mark your calendars for a web conference hosted by DVP’s partners, PreventConnect and The National Sexual Violence Resource Center.  This will be a unique opportunity for researchers and practitioners to discuss the latest findings from a new CDC funded study on Green Dot, a bystander intervention strategy for sexual violence prevention. We look forward to a dynamic discussion on:

  • The value of bystander intervention programs
  • The outcomes of the Green Dot study;
  • How the implications from the study can be applied to current bystander intervention work.

Bystander intervention is a common approach toward preventing sexual and domestic violence.  This has helped shift efforts that focus exclusively on perpetrators and survivors to efforts that elevate the role that every member of a community plays in prevention. A new study, released in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, shows that Green Dot, a bystander intervention program, was effective in reducing sexual violence perpetration rates in high schools. This is an important addition to the growing evidence base for bystander intervention. Join PreventConnect, the National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC), researchers,  and implementers of Green Dot to learn more about this new research and to engage in a discussion around the implications this study has for all prevention practitioners utilizing bystander interventions.

HOSTS: David S. Lee and Ashleigh Klein-Jimenez, PreventConnect and CALCASA

OBJECTIVES:

  • Assess the value of bystander intervention programs
  • Describe the outcomes of the Green Dot study
  • Identify the implications from the study findings and how they can be applied to current bystander intervention work
