BodyRight: A Sexual Violence Awareness and Prevention Programme for Young People DRCC is offering a four day Training Programme to Youthworkers, Youthreach staff and second level school staff to equip them to facilitate the BodyRight programme. The training programme for facilitators includes  understanding sexual violence and its impact  working sensitively with young people on these issues  dealing with and containing any issues that may arise  using mindful self awareness with young people  the content, methodology and delivery of the BodyRight programme. This training is participative and experiential. It is expected that it will also be relevant to other aspects of participants’ roles in their schools or other settings. Participants will be offered support and mentoring from the DRCC as they begin to deliver the programme in their own school or youth work setting. The BodyRight programme The purpose of the BodyRight programme is to raise awareness as to what constitutes sexual violence, to educate young people concerning the facts, the law, the meaning and legal implications of consent and the impact of sexual violence. It provides a space where young people can, in a non-threatening environment, examine their own and others’ attitudes and behaviours with regard to sexual violence and explore how these attitudes affect the person who experiences sexual violence. The programme aims to empower young people to stay safer by increasing their awareness and understanding, and by equipping them with skills to help them make their own decisions and to hold their position. It offers them information on supports available to any young person who has experienced any form of sexual violence. BodyRight may be delivered only by facilitators who have attended this training. DRCC recommends that the programme is delivered by two facilitators one of whom must have attended this training with DRCC. The BodyRight programme is intended to be used as an integrated part of or a follow on to a wider relationships and sexuality training programme already being facilitated in the school or youth work setting. Those who successfully complete the training will receive a hard copy of the BodyRight Handbook, all materials on USB, and a copy of the DVD created for this programme.
