Who We Are
The College Consortium Against Sexual Assault (CCASA) is comprised of representatives from Connecticut colleges and universities, as well as individuals from community services and programs who work to improve the response to and prevention of sexual violence. Members include representatives from:
* Judicial Affairs * Counseling/Wellness
* Residential Life * Women's Centers
* Campus Safety/Police * Sexual Assault Crisis Centers
* Student Activities * Health Education
The Consortium is coordinated by Connecticut Sexual Assault Crisis Services (CONNSACS) while meetings and discussions are facilitated by one of two
co-chairs.
Mission
The mission of the Connecticut College Consortium Against Sexual Assault is to provide a forum for campus faculty, administrators, and students to address the issues of sexual assault and other forms of violence against women on college and university campuses; and to share information, strategies, ideas and resources in order to strengthen and support each institution’s work to end sexual violence.
Benefits
A recent survey of our members highlighted the many benefits of joining the College Consortium:
- Training & workshops on key issues
- Greater collaboration between campus staff and community based sexual assault programs
- Enhanced sexual assault prevention programs
- Increased availability of up to date materials and resources and the power to develop better ones.
