07/21/2010 - Men Can Stop Rape Training
From Theory to Practice

http://www.mencanstoprape.org/
WHEN: 07/21/2010 to 07/23/2010
WHAT: Training
WHERE: Center for Education on Violence Against Women
801 Pennsylvania Ave., NW
Washington, DC 20408
INFORMATION: Every day in our communities, men of all ages are making choices based on their understanding of what it means to be a "real" man-choices that contribute to devastating public health issues such as domestic violence, sexual assault, teen pregnancy, and the spread of STDs and HIV/AIDS. What men need are healthier, alternative visions of masculinity-but how do we reach them?
Attend Men Can Stop Rape's three day training...and learn the theory behind our award-winning program the Men of Strength Club, our Strength Trainings, and "My Strength" public awareness campaign that encourage young men to make healthier choices. Our 20-25 person trainings feature interactive group exercises, role-playing, multi-media presentations, and thoughtful, in-depth discussions. Our approach is based on the social ecological model, advocated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as a framework for the primary prevention of gender-based violence.
