Indiana Campus Sexual Assault Prevention Project

The goal of the Indiana Campus Sexual Assault Primary Prevention (INCSAPP) Project is to increase the capacity of Indiana colleges and universities to prevent initial occurrence of sexual violence through training and technical assistance, campus coalition-building, and mini-grants. Special emphasis will be given to social marketing campaigns, bystander intervention, male involvement, data collection, and policy analysis. INCSAPP, established in July 1997, is funded by the Indiana State Department of Health, CDC Rape Prevention Education grant. Project Director: Nancy Maylath, Project Coordinators:  Katherine Beavis and Emily Haas-Warren
