This curriculum provides comprehensive, basic information. The major use of this curriculum is for new advocates when other training is not immediately available, or cost prohibited.”

Gardens for Growing Healthy Communities

“A recently formed collaborative, Gardens for Growing Healthy Communities studies how community gardens in low- to moderate-income neighborhoods in Denver impact community health and translates findings for stakeholders. The project works to foster community well-being in inner-city neighborhoods by turning vacant lots into community gardens.”

Victim Impact Statements

“As you are preparing your impact statement, you may find that using the following questions can guide you.  Remember that writing about your feelings may be very painful, so be sure to pace yourself and don’t feel that you need to have it “perfect”.  Be gentle with yourself and take as many breaks as you need.”

Boys As Allies

“Boys as Allies is ultimately challenging the age-old notion of “boys will be boys” and seeks to educate boys and young men about taking accountability for their behaviors and increasing their awareness and capacity to join the work of eliminating sexual violence.”
