ABOUT BRONCO STRONG
The Bronco Strong: Voices Against Violence program is designed to enhance educational initiatives focused on preventing sexual violence. The program will also provide additional training and resources to campus public safety personnel involved in addressing reports of sexual violence.
The program will incorporate an evidence-based bystander intervention curriculum, such as the It's Your Business Bystander Intervention Program. This curriculum is specifically designed to prevent sexual violence by empowering students to recognize and safely intervene in situations. Each activity within the program will include multi-disciplinary approaches that promote skills building, nonviolent community norms, individualized support, and increased competency to contribute to sexual violence and prevention and victim-survivor support.
Topics that are addressed through education will include but are not limited to:
» Developing healthy relationships » The continuum of violence
» Human trafficking prevention and intervention
» Definitions of consent and sexual assault » Bystander intervention
In addition to student-focused training, the program will offer specialized instruction for campus personnel aimed at developing, strengthening, and implementing policies, protocols, and services to better address domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking on campus. The advanced training for campus public safety personnel will include topics such as the use of technology in the commission of sexual violence and additional training on relationship violence. Campus public safety personnel will participate in the Blue Campaign, a national initiative to raise awareness of human trafficking. The project will also include ongoing workshops and training sessions for both students and staff to support a safer, more responsive campus environment.
