HAVEN Training: Creating Allies for Survivors

HAVEN Registration: here

The HAVEN Program is a campus-wide initiative to increase support for student survivors of interpersonal violence and to further the university's efforts to prevent interpersonal violence. The idea is to create multiple "safe spaces" around the campus for students to go for information, discussion, and referral. Students, faculty and staff may attend a HAVEN training session and then receive a sign for their door which indicates that they are a safe person to go to discuss issues around sexual assault, abusive relationships, and stalking.

HAVEN is coordinated by the HAVEN Program Coordinator Graduate Assistant and the Interpersonal Violence Prevention Coordinator in  Wellness and co-sponsored by the Carolina Women's Center and the UNC Office of the Dean of Students. The program was initially funded in part by the Robertson Collaborative Grant program and is currently supported by a Parent's Council grant.
