What is VOICE?

As peer educators, VOICEs will provide programming intended to promote safe and healthy relationships, free of sexual violence.  These efforts are achieved through passive and active programming in residential, academic, athletic, Greek and other student settings.  Types of VOICE programs include facilitated discussions following skits or film segments, educational/informational presentations, and many other types of interactive programs.  In addition, VOICEs passively educate about sexual violence through tools like Newsletters and bulletin boards.

Mission Statement: We are dedicated to providing education and promoting awareness in order to encourage women and men to raise their V.O.I.C.E.s against sexual violence.
