PREVENTION PROGRAM

What is Prevention?

Sexual violence is a serious problem that permeates all aspects of our society. The Rape Recovery Center’s Prevention Program has one simple goal: to stop sexual violence from happening in the first place. While no prevention strategy is 100% effective, our program utilizes diverse strategies to end sexual and dating violence.

Lets talk statistics.

We offer several education modules for youth (12-25), parents and caregivers, and community members throughout salt lake county that focus on prevention of sexual violence, education on consent, healthy relationships and more. Below you can view the list of current programs we offer.

Programs are funded by the Department of Workforce Services
