Would you feel safe going to college knowing there is a 34% chance you are raped or sexually assaulted? Imagine if you could look up how safe each campus is before deciding where to attend? With your support, we will make this a reality. We're raising money to launch the SVPA Score - the first and only assessment for campus sexual violence. By empowering students, the SVPA Score holds universities accountable for preventing sexual assault and supporting survivors.
Over 90% of female college students experience sexual violence. This is preventable. While some universities are taking action to prevent sexual violence, most are not. Right now, it is impossible to tell the difference. Every year, thousands of students are sexually assaulted because they unknowingly attended an unsafe school. On top of that, there is a lack of research that inhibits improvement. Universities need to be held accountable for preventing sexual violence and supporting survivors.
The SVPA Score is the only assessment for campus sexual violence practices. The SVPA Score assesses universities' policies, programs, and procedures for sexual violence prevention and survivor support. The Scores are published on our website and will soon be included in college ranking and comparison systems such as US News, Niche, and College Confidential. This empowers students to choose the school that will best protect them. Thus, the SVPA Score holds universities accountable.
The SVPA's research will revolutionize public policy and university practices. The SVPA Score will be expanded to companies, businesses, and other workplaces. All of the scoring data will be compiled to form the largest database for sexual violence prevention. This data will be analyzed using artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and statistical analysis to generate groundbreaking discoveries for prevention strategies. Our research will revolutionize the field of sexual violence.
