The SARA Office develops and contributes to a wide range of programs, projects, and events to increase awareness about interpersonal violence and to meet the needs of Stanford students, faculty, and staff. Our programs promote healthy sexuality and relationships, dispel myths about sexual and relationship violence, examine gender roles and how they relate to Interpersonal Violence, provide guidance on risk reduction, advise students of available resources and explore how each of us can become empowered to end sexual and relationship violence.
We are always seeking new ideas and opportunities for collaboration. We appreciate the expertise and experiences of our students and colleagues as we aim to work together to create a violence-free community.
Our programming efforts include a wide range of related topics including:
- Sexual Misconduct and Sexual Assault
- Relationship Abuse
- Bystander intervention
- Understanding Sexual Consent
- Defining Manhood and Masculinity from an Anti-Violence Perspective
- The Intersections of Gender, Sexuality, and Sexual Assault for Greek Life Organizations
These programs are designed to meet the needs of specific audiences. We can come to your dorm, fraternity or sorority meeting, class, community center, or virtually anywhere else that your group is gathered. Presentations are structured to encourage dialogue, reflection, and critical thinking about interpersonal violence, as well as to offer ways to challenge thoughts and behaviors that contribute to this violence.
Contact staff at saraoffice@stanford.edu to discuss your needs and schedule a program for your campus group.
