This year’s two-day conference will also be held in partnership with the It’s On Us National Partners Prevention Summit, bringing together student leaders and higher education professionals from across the Commonwealth. We encourage proposals that feature faculty, staff, and student development and leadership tracks, highlighting effective practices in student leadership, peer-to-peer engagement, and sexual violence prevention efforts on college campuses and within surrounding communities.
