RALIANCE advocates for prevention funding and policies that put the needs of survivors first. That’s why we’re supporting a track at the 2018 National Sexual Assault Conference: We want to share what we’ve learned and engage with people interested in concrete prevention solutions.
As a funder, our partnership has supported 52 projects in the last three years. That support has meant $2.3 million in grants that have furthered prevention in communities across the country. And we’ve opened another round of funding with a deadline closing soon: August 24, 2018.
Bold moves are necessary to end sexual violence in one generation. That’s why we are supporting projects that can be replicated in other communities that would benefit from a pilot project approach to test their efficacy and impact, or that need scaling up.
RALIANCE sees three prevention strategies working simultaneously as the key to enact lasting change: We must support survivors and increase access to services, we must prevent perpetration and look at the ways we can intervene earlier before harm occurs and we must change our culture by thinking creatively about community-based prevention solutions.
Several of our grantees will be sharing their projects at #NSAC2018. If you won’t be on site with us in Anaheim for #BoldMoves, we created an online searchable archive where you can learn more about concrete prevention solutions, lessons learned and how projects are impacting communities.
