In keeping with the newly-created university-wide Sexual Misconduct Policy, UVI will hold two workshops to educate the university community about the policy:
St. Thomas Campus: 1 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 29, Sports and Fitness Center – East Mezzanine
St. Croix Campus: 1 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 30, Evans Center Room 721
The workshops will feature presentations to raise awareness about the newly-updated Sexual Misconduct policy. Presentations will include vital information on sexual harassment, sexual misconduct, updates on bystander awareness information and self-defense workshops.
Participants will learn how to access emergency, counseling, and health services in the case of a sexual misconduct incident. Students will learn how to proactively defend themselves and the resources available to them and fellow students on campus and on island. These workshops are a joint event between UVI and the Domestic Violence and Substance Abuse Coalition. For more information contact Patricia Towal at (340) 692-4187 or ptowal@uvi.edu.
