Campus Dating Violence

The YWCA is committed to addressing and preventing violence throughout the lifespan and acknowledging the risks to college-aged students.

We consult with colleges and universities on issues of campus dating violence, providing education, counseling and support groups for both students and staff, including:

  • Training security and health and wellness staff

  • Facilitating groups for students to discuss issues in their dating relationships

  • Providing prevention education for student groups, student organizations, or in classrooms

Contact Hannah Gunter, Violence Prevention Training Manager, for more information about how we can partner with your institution.

Campus Security Officer, Loyola University Chicago

“As a result of our partnership with the YWCA, we have better systems in place both to prevent campus dating violence and to assist women who have been abused.”
