Funding Opportunity: Indiana Model Campuses for Sexual Violence
Primary Prevention Initiative (Closed)

Goal of the Model Campus Initiative:

The model campus award is for $5,000 to work toward becoming a model campus by enhancing and/or initiating a comprehensive approach to sexual violence primary prevention. The campus will be asked to demonstrate all of the following components of a comprehensive approach by October 2009:

• social marketing
• data collection
• coalition building
• bystander intervention
• policy analysis
• male involvement

By effectively utilizing all six components to exemplify a comprehensive approach, the campus will be a model for sexual violence primary prevention in the State of Indiana.

To be considered for this grant, individuals must submit a letter of intent by Friday, May 22, 2009, addressing the following:

1. Explain whether your campus has used any of the following sexual violence prevention comprehensive approach components.

a. Social marketing for sexual assault prevention
b. Data collection (related to sexual assault and/or alcohol)
c. Coalition building
d. Bystander intervention
e. Policy analysis
f. Male involvement

For each component please use a simple outline format with bullets and describe:
• What were the initiatives of the component.
• When the components were implemented.
• What office or group implemented the component.
• The strengths and weaknesses of the programs or strategies used.
• Please indicate which components you have not utilized and why.

2. What resources do you currently have for sexual assault prevention? Include staffing, funding, and other resources.
3. Please list the names of six people on campus or in the community who are willing to support this project. Please include their positions and departments on campus or their roles in the community. (Please speak with these people to confirm their support before listing them.)
4. Please list the names of up to six students or student groups who are willing to help with your project in the fall.

At this time you do not need to provide a working budget. If you are chosen as a model campus, we will meet with you and help establish a work plan and a budget.
