The Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ has received a 2019 Campus Prevention Network Impact Award for outstanding achievements in sexual assault prevention. The Impact Award, which is presented by social impact education innovator\u00a0EVERFI<\/a>, recognizes Rochester\u2019s commitment to creating safe and healthy college campuses by implementing evidence-based practices. Rochester is one of 1,500\u00a0Campus Prevention Network\u00a0(CPN) members, but one of only five to receive a 2019 Impact Award for Sexual Assault Prevention.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe prevention work of the Title IX Office demonstrates the University\u2019s strong commitment to ensuring that all members of the University community have a place to live, learn, discover, and heal, free from sexual misconduct,\u201d says Morgan Levy, Title IX coordinator and director of University Student Services Coordination.<\/p>\n

The University\u2019s sexual assault and misconduct prevention efforts are coordinated through the University\u2019s Title IX Office, which is staffed by Levy; T Street, assistant director for educational outreach; and deputy Title IX coordinators throughout the University. Additionally, there is ongoing collaboration between the Title IX Office and many University departments and units to develop and execute prevention programs throughout the year. These units include the Office for Residential Life and Housing Services, the Department of Public Safety, the Office of the Dean of Students, University Health Service, and the University Counseling Center.<\/p>\n

EVERFI Impact Award winners consistently demonstrate a dedication to prevention efforts that exceed their peer institutions. Institutions are selected based on the results and scores of their Sexual Assault Diagnostic Inventory (SADI), a set of comprehensive evidence-informed assessments of an institution\u2019s prevention programs and practices grounded in peer-reviewed literature on best practices. Additional selection criteria include interviews with prevention experts and a careful review of each institution\u2019s accomplishments from the previous year.<\/p>\n

The results of Rochester\u2019s\u00a0most recent SADI<\/a>\u00a0earned the institution an \u201cadvanced\u201d designation for its programming, critical processes, and institutionalization. Participating schools are designated as Emerging, Developing, Proficient, or Advanced.<\/p>\n

In the past year, the University has taken a number of important steps to strengthen policies, clarify processes, and expand training and resource efforts as part of strengthening its Culture of Respect.<\/p>\n

EVERFI Impact Award winners were recognized during EVERFI\u2019s 11th annual\u00a0Campus Prevention Network Summit in Nashville, Tennessee, June 10-12. The Campus Prevention Network Summit is the preeminent opportunity for CPN partners to gather, learn, share, and explore strategies for enhancing prevention and compliance efforts on college campuses nationwide. Street accepted the award and received a special mention from the award committee for their hard work and dedication, as well as their unwavering commitment to creating a healthy and safe campus. The committee further noted that the University\u2019s success was \u201cin great part due to Street\u2019s and Levy\u2019s leadership and tireless efforts to develop, implement, and sustain a set of effective education and prevention initiatives.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe EVERFI Impact Award allows EVERFI the opportunity to recognize and celebrate the tremendous commitment these institutions are making by implementing comprehensive, data-driven prevention practices,\u201d says Rob Buelow, vice president, Impact and Education, EVERFI. \u201cWith so much recent emphasis on the shortcomings in campus prevention and response efforts, the EVERFI Impact Award aims to shift the narrative by highlighting campuses doing exemplary work to make their communities safe and inclusive.\u201d<\/p>\n

The other four Impact Award winners for sexual assault prevention are Amherst College, Centre College, University of Chicago, and University of Delaware.<\/p>\n
