LGBTQIA+ SEXUAL VIOLENCE AND Community Engagement INITIATIVE

Sexual Violence (SV) impacts every community and affects people of all ages, genders, and sexual orientations. In order to prevent SV we must understand and address risk and protective factors at the individual, relational, community and societal levels. The initiative coordinates community level interventions, reaches individuals where they are and makes the connection about various forms of oppression that can be at the core of violence. Health Educator, Philip T. McCabe, MSW, provided the following courses to a range of community groups in both virtual and in-person formats. Over 1,200 people completed one or more of his trainings.

“ In early 2022, we conducted a state-wide needs assessment on community supports for LGBTQIA+ identified individuals. The purpose of the project was to identify existing resources and where assistance is most urgently needed. Through a two month social media campaign, we yielded 524 survey responses from across New Jersey. Ultimately this project will support innovative and creative community partner projects for LGBTQIA+ individuals, making New Jersey a safer and more tolerant state. This project is in partnership with the New Jersey Department of Children and Families Division on Women – Rape Prevention and Education Initiative (NJDCF DOW RPE) and funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Stop SV.
