Get Involved with Student Groups

There are many ways to get involved in the campaign to end gender violence on our campus. For example you can attend events in the Sexual Assault Awareness Week that will be held in April, you can attend the Take Back the Night program that is held annually to help eradicate sexual violence in our society, and you can talk with your friends and family when you hear comments that are inappropriate or disrespectful towards women. It is the hope of the Gender Violence Education and Support Services Office to provide training and education to groups across campus.

Sexual Assault Survivor Advocate Network
This is a group of staff, students, and faculty who have been trained extensively in the area of sexual assault response and are on call 24/7 during the Fall, Winter, and Spring quarters.

Rape Awareness And Gender Education (R.A.G.E)
A student organization committed to peer education and campus programming on sexual assault.

Men as Allies
A men's prevention and education program that discuss issues of masculinity and how to be an ally.

Graduate Women's Council
This group consists of graduate students who are interested in furthering opportunities and issues for graduate women at DU.

The Undergraduate Women's Council
A club that is intended to create a community for women and their allies, and act as a forum for expressing their concerns and ways to voice these issues on the University of Denver campus. Email Ariel.kay@du.edu to be added to the listserve or if you have any questions or concerns.

If you are interested in any of these initiatives, or if you are interested in staying aware of gender violence programming on this campus then please contact the GVESS Office at 303-871-3853 or gvess@du.edu.

Eliminating gender violence from our society can be an overwhelming prospect but it is not impossible. YOU can make a difference. Get involved. Speak up. Be an ally.
