What Is Community-Level Prevention, Anyway?

Podcast episode: What is Community-Level Prevention, Anyway?

In the anti-sexual violence field, we talk a lot about community-level prevention. But what does that mean? And what does community-level prevention look like?

In the first episode of our new podcast, Resource on the Go, NSVRC's Prevention Director Jennifer Grove and Prevention Specialist Mo Lewis discuss what community-level prevention really means. Hear them grapple with the many uses of the word “community,” learn the litmus test they use to help figure out if something is really community-level prevention, and get more familiar with the ways we discuss this level of the Social Ecological Model.
