The strengthening culturally specific campus approaches to address domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking initiative (CSC initiative) supports historically black colleges and universities (HBCUS), hispanic-serving institutions (HSIS), and tribal colleges and universities (TCUS) to strengthen their institutional response to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking on campus. The CSC initiative focuses on building the capacity of these institutions to establish culturally relevant strategies to address domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, including the development of effective response protocols and prevention programming. Riverside community college district is a public HSI located in riverside, california. With this new award, riverside community college district, in collaboration with its campus partners, will create culturally specific strategies tailored to lgbtq+, immigrant, first-generation, and military-connected students; as well as, students with dependent children, and work with the designated campus technical assistance provider to: 1) build the capacity of the institution to develop a culturally specific, coordinated community response to address domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking by securing relevant partnerships, conducting trainings, and developing resources tailored to the campus community; 2) develop an action plan to outline key strategies necessary to establish a coordinated community response; and 3) establish a coordinated community response team that will oversee and implement project activities.
