The collaboration between SAF and SUNY Oswego has resulted in increased awareness of sexual assault and the issues surrounding it, as well as student body and community involvement in interpersonal violence prevention. “Strong partnerships like this are vital to spreading the message that ‘It’s On Us’ to stop sexual violence, and we are ready and willing to take up that responsibility.” said OCO Community Response Coordinator Stacie France. For information on any of these events contact Sara Carmichael at 315-342-1544 ext. 1644.
