Violence Intervention & Prevention (VIP) Course

This course is available to any member from any Greek organization on campus and will be held every Winter Quarter. The class include one required weekend retreat. 

Course Description

This course will introduce initiated fraternity and sorority members to the Sexual Citizenship Framework as well as fundamental skills and practices to support creating positive change. Students will be provided opportunities, guidance, and resources to design and implement their own projects to advance a culture of sexual citizenship in their chapters and broader fraternity and sorority communities. This course is limited to initiated fraternity and sorority members only. A permission code is required to register.

Course Purpose

The primary endeavor of the course is to support a culture of sexual citizenship; affirming the right of every individual to sexual self-determination while promoting care, equity, and accountability among all members of the community. Students will learn how to facilitate a wide range of educational programs to cultivate a culture of sexual citizenship for their respective chapter and for the Greek community and Stanford community as a whole. 

This course is part of the Violence Intervention and Prevention (VIP) Program, which is a collaboration between the Sexual Harassment/Assault Response & Education (SHARE) Title IX & Title VI Office and Fraternity and Sorority Life (FSL). The VIP Program is an opportunity offered to Stanford fraternity and sorority community members who are committed to addressing the issues of sexual and relationship violence on campus. The VIP Program was founded on the belief that students can cultivate change for themselves and their communities in relation to sexual and relationship violence by providing peer-to-peer education and support. This program is a best practice and national model and is open to any student who is a member of a recognized fraternity or sorority on campus.
