  1. Foundations: A Coordinated Community Response Barbara Paradiso Training and Technical Assistance Institute I February , 2016 FY 2015 Grants to Reduce Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, Dating Violence and Stalking on Campus Program

  2. Our Work for this TTI • Establish foundational understanding of coordinated campus response teams (CCRT) • Strengthen CCRT infrastructure and capacity to carry out Campus Program work

  3. Our Work for Today Session Goal– Establish Foundational Understanding of Coordinated Campus Response Team (CCRT) Objectives: • Grantees will be able to describe what a Coordinated Community Response Team is and why it is important to campus change work. • Grantees will be able to describe the components of an effective Coordinated Community Response team. • Grantees will be able to define the mission of their CCRT appropriate to their campus

  4. Topics to Cover • Welcome and Introductions • Session Goal and Objectives • Why a Coordinated Community Response • What is a Coordinated Community Response • Setting the Cornerstones • Composition (Process) • Mission (Implementation)

  5. Why a Coordinated Community Response? • Research and practice confirm that the engagement of multiple entities is required to make the changes needed to effectively respond to campus sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking. • Broad scale efforts are not successful if they lack coordination or operate in silos. • The ultimate objective of the Campus Program

  6. What is a Coordinated Community Response Approach? • A multifaceted, coordinated effort to accomplish a unified goal • Does three things: • Engages key stakeholders from the community and campus including students, faculty, staff and administrators. • Ensures a timely, culturally relevant and respectful response to sexual assault, domestic and dating violence and stalking committed on or off campus. • Through shared oversight and inter-agency/ office/department cooperation avoids inconsistent, unnecessarily duplicative, and insensitive responses to victims and prevention efforts that are contradictory, exclusive or ineffective.

  7. Establishing a CCR Team A Coordinated Community Response Team (CCRT) is comprised of two aspects that are constant and intertwined. One cannot be successful without the other: • its process/method (Collaboration) • Its purpose/work (Implementation)

  8. What is a CCRT? • A coming together of people; a series of conversations focused on achieving a goal • Purposeful: Vision driven; collectively centered; change oriented • Built on common knowledge; Shared Values; Shared Understanding **A QUICK TALK! • Multi-disciplinary: different entities with individualized expertise and varied experience working together across differences

  9. QUICK TALK! • Write down your response to the following situation: Janice, an undergraduate student at your institution comes upon another student, Sue, in the bathroom of one of the lecture buildings. Sue is crying and tells Janice that she was recently assaulted. What is the first thing Janice should do? • Share your response with the others at your table • How many different answers were in your group?

  10. Activities of a CCRT • Assessment of Campus Readiness & Needs • Culture and Climate • Inventory • Capacity • Planning • Approach • Outcomes and Strategies • Campus Program Competency Areas • Holistic/ Vertical Integration • Evaluation

  11. Campus Program Competency Areas • Track Competencies (4) • CCR • Prevention Education • Law Enforcement • Conduct and Victim Services • Core Competencies (4) • Violence Against Women • Strategic Planning and Assessment • Community Engagement • Sustainability • Area Competencies (3) • Culturally Competent • CleryCompliance • Engaging Men/Pro-social masculinity

  12. Setting the Cornerstones Building the foundation for your CCRT. Setting the four cornerstones required for success: • Two of the building blocks are related to the purpose/ implementation aspect of the CCRT • Two related to the process/collaboration aspect. Today: • Broad and representative composition - process • Shared Mission - purpose Thursday Afternoon: • Shared Values - process • Structure - purpose

  13. CCRT Composition EXERCISE With your fellow TTI Teammates: • Given the definition and range of activities the CCRT will be engaging in - brainstorm all who should be/needs to be at the CCRT table? • Develop a list of new members for consideration. • Identify the top three people/positions that are not now participating that you want to start reaching out to when you return home. • Determine who will reach out to those people.

  14. Mission Why a mission statement? • Focuses your work • Template for decision making – provides a framework for evaluating opportunities for “fit” • Helps to define your organization (CCRT!) and establish your brand • Alignment - helps members focus their efforts • Facilitates evaluation and improvement

  15. Creating a Mission Statement • Short, succinct, memorable and engaging  • Answers 4 questions: • Who are we • What do we do • For whom do we do it • To what end? Why?

  16. Exercise Within each school team: • Break into two small groups. • Brainstorm answers to the 4 mission questions. • Select your two strongest responses to each question. • Join with the rest of your team. Share your responses to each question and select the response that resonates most strongly with everyone. • String your top responses to the 4 questions together into a one or two sentence mission statement.

  17. Example PGV Student Cohort 15 • WHO: a group of radical advocates • WHAT: acquiring knowledge and creating innovative approaches to ending IPV • FOR WHOM: our communities • TO WHAT END: to eradicate gender based violence • Statement: Cohort 15 is a group of radical advocates focused on acquiring knowledge and creating innovative approaches for our communities to eradicate gender based violence.

  18. Real Life Samples! Loyola University Chicago LUC’s CCRT brings together students, staff and faculty to create a campus culture where gender-based violence of any kind, specifically domestic/dating violence, sexual misconduct and stalking is not tolerated. Through our commitment to education, training, increased accessibility to services, and promotion of accountability and justice – our diverse campus community is safer and more supportive of survivors. Emory University The Respect Program in the Office of Health Promotion engages the Emory community in preventing and responding to sexual assault and relationship violence.
