A Lineage of Research and Proven Strategies
More than a decade ago, our founders Jane Stapleton and Sharyn Potter launched the Prevention Innovations Research Center (PIRC) at the University of New Hampshire. Through PIRC they have released groundbreaking research, trained a new generation of researchers, and continued to provide guidance to local, state, and national coalitions and consortiums. Their work to create a world free of sexual violence and stalking has been recognized through numerous awards and advisory roles, including being members of President Obama's White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault.
Study after study has demonstrated the problem schools, community partners and workplaces face as they work to create safe and respectful environments for students and employees.
