The Violence Against Women Act: Developing Educational Programs For Compliance

Following the March 2013 federal reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), colleges and universities are now required to offer educational programs aimed at addressing relationship violence and preventing sexual assault on campus.

Join Drs. Murphy and Van Brunt as they bring together their expertise in student affairs administration, counseling, and prevention outreach to address this important topic. They will share practical and useful information that will help colleges and universities better meet these new governmental standards.
