Prevention Education

Each year the SACPC Education Department gives hundreds of presentations on bullying, harassment, date/acquaintance rape, rape drugs, and sexual harassment to thousands of 6-12 graders in Pierce County schools. Each presentation is geared toward a specific age group and is designed to lead to the elimination of sexual violence in the schools and the community. These presentations are free of charge, although donations are greatly appreciated.

Community Education

SACPC provides education to community organizations and businesses throughout Pierce County. Presentations cover various topics of sexual assault and abuse, including date/acquaintance rape, rape drugs, sexual harassment, and the general dynamics of sexual assault.

Professional Training

SACPC provides a 30+ hour Basic Sexual Assault Awareness Training (BSAAT) four times a year. This training is state certified and open to human services providers, law enforcement, medical professionals, legal professionals, school personnel, daycare providers, counselors, advocates, concerned parents/grandparents, Human Resource managers, religious leaders, and others who provide services throughout the community. See our Calendar of Events for specific dates.

We also provide education to community organizations and businesses on sexual harassment in the workplace, keeping children safe from child molesters, and the general dynamics of sexual assault.

The Therapy department provides training and consultation on Vicarious Trauma (the impact working with trauma survivors has on staff, volunteers, and organizations.)

There are fees for education and training services, with scholarships available. Please contact our Education Director at (253) 597-6424 ext. 13 to find out more.
