PreventConnect webinar series explores links among various forms of violence, multi-sector prevention efforts, and social inclusion strategies
We know a good deal about how to prevent sexual and domestic violence (SDV) before it starts—by engaging communities, creating safe community environments, and working to change social norms to promote health, safety and equity. For more than 10 years, Prevention Institute and the California Coalition Against Sexual Assault (CALCASA) have convened a diverse array of prevention experts, advocates and practitioners to address the underlying contributors to sexual and domestic violence. Our ongoing webinar series, Beyond Partnerships: Shared Linkages for Prevention, explores the underlying contributors to SDV, linkages among SDV and other forms of violence, and related social justice movements.
In two upcoming webinars, participants will engage in candid discussions around practice- and research-informed strategies and examples to prevent SDV.

Using Shared Risk and Protective Factors to Prevent Sexual and Domestic Violence: Research into practice and policy
Wednesday, August 17th
11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. PST

Based on the report “Connecting the Dots: An overview of the links among multiple forms of violence,” we will explore partnerships across other forms of violence and multi-sector efforts that have integrated shared risk and protective factors for better outcomes.
You can download previous web conferences from this year’s series, where topics included moving beyond gender binary and heteronormative approaches to SDV prevention, and alliance-building between SDV prevention and other social justice movements.
