Reducing Alcohol Involved Sexual Violence in Higher Education
Sponsor: University of Pittsburgh
Summary
This cluster-randomized controlled trial across 28+ college campuses focuses on undergraduate college students at elevated risk for sexual violence and hazardous drinking (i.e., students with prior history of sexual violence, students who are sexual or gender minority, and students with disabilities). "Reducing Alcohol Involved Sexual violence in higher Education (RAISE)" is a longitudinal study that will test research-informed strategies to improve implementation of a prevention intervention in college health and counseling centers, integrate a safety decision aid (via computer or mobile device) to more directly target harm reduction among students particularly vulnerable to hazardous drinking and SV, and evaluate campus policies that increase accessibility and uptake of confidential services for students. This is the first study to situate a sexual violence prevention intervention in college health and counseling centers to address two significant public health concerns -- alcohol-involved sexual violence and hazardous drinking on college campuses.
