麻豆传媒映画 will become the first public university in the United States to offer an evidence-based training proven to reduce a woman鈥檚 risk of sexual assault. Flip the Script is a 12-hour sexual assault resistance-training program that follows the Enhanced Assess Acknowledge Act (EAAA) curriculum developed by Charlene Senn, Ph.D., from the University of Windsor. In a randomized trial, women who completed the EAAA training were 46 percent less likely to experience a completed sexual assault, and 63 percent less likely to experience an attempted sexual assault.

Flip the Script emphasizes that it is never the victim鈥檚 fault if they are sexually assaulted, and no student should have to limit their college experience due to fear of sexual assault.

鈥淲e recognize that perpetrators alone are responsible for sexual assault, and we will never stop working to end perpetration,鈥 said Sarah Deatherage, health promotion coordinator in FAU鈥檚 Owls Care Health Promotion. 鈥淎s long as sexual assault is an issue on college campuses, women have the right to defend their well-being. Flip the Script is one of FAU鈥檚 many comprehensive efforts against sexual assault.鈥

The training, which will be offered at FAU this fall, is divided into four, three-hour sessions. The program is free and is open to all self-identified women currently enrolled at FAU. A certificate of completion will be given to students who attend all four sessions.
