CARE offers prevention education and professional training to members of the UC Davis campus in Davis and UC Davis Health in Sacramento. Our education programs aim to raise awareness of the dynamics of sexual harassment and sexual violence, including sexual assault, intimate partner violence, and stalking, and to reinforce behaviors indicative of healthy relationships and healthy sexual communication. Additionally, our education programs seek to provide community members with the right tools to intervene to stop abuse and change social norms. We offer workshops, classes, and consultation.  Workshops are available to academic classes, departments, residence halls and other groups.  Workshops are facilitated by professional staff or peer educators and utilize discussion, role plays, exercises and activities.
