The Centers for Disease Control reports that 8% of high school students have experienced sexual violence. This silent epidemic impacts a teen's physical health, emotional health and behavior. This student-centered video and print curriculum is based on the CDC's recommendations for preventing sexual violence. Five short segments of approximately 10 minutes each educate and inform students about these critical issues: Gender Stereotypes, Sexual Harassment, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault and Media Safety. Each segment presents a real-life scenario that encourages discussion of these sensitive topics among students. Discussion questions, activities and hand-outs reinforce the prevention message.
