Rape Prevention and Education Program Evaluation
Rape and sexual violence are important and widespread public health problems in the United States.
According to CDC's National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey—nearly 2 million women are raped in a year, and nearly (1 in 2) women, and (1 in 5) men experienced sexual violence victimization other than rape in their lifetime.
With a very limited evidence-base, to assist practitioner efforts to address this public health issue, we need to enhance program evaluation activities and capacity within state Rape Prevention and Education (RPE) programs.
The FY 2016 supplemental funding will assist RPE grantees in their capacity to implement outcome-based prevention efforts as well as identify prevention strategies emerging from the field that are ready for rigorous evaluation research and that will enhance the list of evidence-based strategies available to prevent and reduce the burden of this critical issue.

Keeping Half the Profits Beats Non-profits for Social Impact
Melbourne social enterprise Who Gives A Crap sold nearly 3 million rolls of toilet paper in 2014/15 and gave half the proceeds to WaterAid Australia, but co-founder Simon Griffiths says the donation would have been less had the startup adopted a non-profit model when it launched two years ago.
