FY15 College Sexual Assault Policy and Prevention Initiative
The Office on Women's Health (OWH) provides national leadership and coordination to improve the health of women and girls through policy, education, and model programs.
OWH works with numerous government agencies, non-profit organizations, consumer groups, and associations of health care professionals to advance this mission.
OWH has a history of working to stop violence against women and girls in the United States and around the world through education, programs and policy.
In past years, OWH has focused on how violence affects women with disabilities, men as partners in prevention of violence, and the role of colleges and universities in preventing sexual assault and violence against women.
From 2010 – 2013, OWH implemented the Health and Wellness Initiative for Women Attending 3 Minority Institutions, which supported eight minority-serving institutions (two Hispanic-Serving Institutions, four Historically Black Colleges and Universities, and two Tribal Colleges and Universities) in conducting women’s health promotion activities, expanding health services and resources for women, and offering on-going HIV education and screening sessions.
Additionally, each grantee created institutional policies and partnerships that addressed the prevention of violence against women.
