Sexual Violence Prevention:
Building Leadership and Commitment to
Underserved Communities
Public Health Training Network Satellite Broadcast & Webcast
Originally aired April 03, 2003
|
|
CDC's Injury Center will sponsor "Sexual Violence Prevention: Building
Leadership and Commitment to Underserved Communities," to provide educational
information to grantees and those who have an interest in preventing sexual violence.
Overall, this broadcast will address issues related to rape prevention and education.
Specifically, the broadcast will:
- Provide examples of programs demonstrating key components of a public health
approach within specific population-based strategies.
- Introduce a paradigm shift from individual to population-based strategies and
inform the audience of disparities within certain racial/ethnic and minority groups.
- Provide information to everyone with a vested interest in preventing sexual
violence and serve as a national forum to raise awareness of efforts to target
populations who have limited access to rape prevention programs such as American
Indian/Alaska Native, Asian/Pacific Islander, Black/African American, Hispanic/Latino,
and disabled women.
A question and answer session will enable participants nationwide to pose questions
to panelists via toll free telephone, fax, or TTY lines.
