Participants will discuss innovative community responses to sexual violence prevention, state-of-the-art communications strategies, promising interventions, policies, and programs, and the latest scientific information on the nature, causes, and prevention of sexual violence. The conference organizers are committed to the 2000 National Sexual Violence Prevention Conference because it offers opportunities to share effective approaches to prevention, practice and science. The Conference seeks to: foster communication and working relationships for sexual violence prevention among victims advocates, prevention program personnel, social service workers, the medical community, civil and criminal justice and law enforcement personnel, researchers, scientists and educators; develop approaches to violence prevention at the community level; and disseminate information about strategies and programs that have been successful in preventing violence and can be replicated in other settings.
