Fire Safety Report for 2016, with crime and fire statistics, is now available.T his report contains information on safety and security prevention programs, policies and procedures for reporting crime and hazardous conditions, victim assistance programs, fire prevention pro- grams, and resource information. This information will assist you in maintaining safety and security for yourself and others while on campus or at one of our affiliated off-site locations. In response to incidents of sexual violence, throughout 2016, UC Santa Cruz continued to implement federal, state, and University of California mandates related to prevention education, as well as the investigation and adjudication of instances of sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking. These efforts have enabled greater access to services, while increasing consistency, transparency, and equity to administrative pro- cesses. Moreover, we revised our Resources and Options brochure, which provides information about reporting options, safety and interim measures, and confidential and other support resources. The UC Santa Cruz Police Department and Title IX Office played a major role in implementing these mandates. In addition to providing prevention education, much effort was placed into encouraging increased reporting of crimes, dangerous situations, and violations of the revised University of California Policy on Sexual Violence and Sexual Harassment. Major crimes reported to the UC Santa Cruz Police Department in 2016 included an aggravated assault NONDISCRIMINATION POLICY STATEMENT and hate crime against a student, numerous burglaries and stolen vehicles, as well as crimes of opportunity such as theft.

Scott in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2011 Running head: RECOVERY FROM IPV: AN AUTOETHNOGRAPHY ii Dedication To the guidance counselor for the Bodine high school for International Affairs graduating class of 1997, who told me that in “my situation” I was wasting my time pursuing a psychology degree, since graduate school was not an option for me. I feel motivated every time I think of that day. Running head: RECOVERY FROM IPV: AN AUTOETHNOGRAPHY iii Acknowledgements First and foremost I would like to thank my loving and supportive husband, Michael, without whom this journey would not have been possible. I appreciate the encouragement, faith, understanding, patience and pep talks on those long nights when I thought I couldn’t do it! You always knew the right times to give me sympathy, a harsh talk, a break or a reality check. Most people search their entire lives and never find a partner like you – you are and always will be my best friend and my rock. I truly believe that you were sent to save my life, and I am thankful every day that you did. To my children, Sierra, Tiana and Stacie, who sacrificed some “mommy time” to support the cause, and are a part of the reason for the cause in the first place. I love you all dearly. I hope I can be half to you of what you have been to me.

If your child is asked to go through a SART exam, an advocate from Monarch Services ~ Servicios Monarcas will be present to provide information and assistance to support your child and you. This support for you will in turn help you support your child in healing from the sexual abuse that they have experienced. WHAT HAPPENS DURING A PEDIATRIC SART EXAM? SART is a model program for the state of California. Its purpose is to collect high quality forensic evidence with minimal impact on the victim. If the assault happened within the last 72 hours, a law enforcement officer decides whether the SART should be initiated. The law enforcement officer activates the SART by notifying the on-call pediatric SANE nurse (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner) and then transporting the child to the SART room at the hospital. (SARTs can be done at Dominican or Watsonville hospitals.) The nurse then calls Monarch Services ~ Servicios Monarcas to arrange for an advocate to meet the team at the hospital.

  • The BADASS Quarterly a Periodic Publication of the BADASS Active Bystander Campaign & the Wellness Resource Center
    The BADASS Quarterly A periodic publication of the BADASS Active Bystander Campaign & the Wellness Resource Center Take action to make sure CC is a safe, accepting, and fun place to spend your college years Blocks 7 & 8 2019 The BADASS campaign focuses mainly on preventing violence, responding to people in distress, and fostering inclusivity. This edition narrows in on the Be Aware component for Sexual Assault Awareness Month. The theme of this year’s SAAM campaign from the National Sexual Violence Resource Center is I Ask. In alignment with the BADASS program, I Ask seeks to broaden understanding of what it means to work towards a culture of consent. Consent isn’t just about sex; it’s relevant when you hug or touch someone and when post photos online as well. NSVRC’s campaign also goes “beyond asking,” questioning how power dynamics (e.g race, age, gender, social standing) impact consent. Consent in a sexual context isn’t just about asking for something and hoping to get it based on the response, it’s about paying attention to your partner’s body language, listening to them, demonstrating interest in their pleasure, and communicating what you like too.

  • Deconstructing This Self: One Black Woman's Exploration of Childhood Sexual Abuse and Process of Personal Reclamation
    Deconstructing This Self: One Black Woman’s Exploration of Childhood Sexual Abuse and Process of Personal Reclamation by Annette Williams © 2007 Deconstructing This Self: One Black Woman’s Exploration of Childhood Sexual Abuse and Process of Personal Reclamation by Annette Williams ABSTRACT Self-identity and its formation shape the broad query underlying this exploration, while the specific area of focus is childhood sexual abuse and its impact upon one’s sense of self and one’s sense of agency. This exploration strives to understand the factors that contribute to the perpetration of childhood sexual abuse, looking at socio-cultural reality that is grounded in patriarchal theology, as well as particular historical views of black female sexuality that might have contributed to my own abuse. Evidenced is how internalization of the abuser’s regard leads to distortions of self-concept. The first half of the exploration is an examination of concomitant contributors to childhood sexual abuse. This includes investigating the theological ground from which modern dysfunctional views of sexuality sprouted, the socio-historical and cultural determinants of the way black women’s sexuality is currently perceived, and the dynamics behind internalization. The second half of the exploration details my personal journey1 and process of reclamation, and employs the heuristic research paradigm developed by Clark Moustakas.2 Here the reader is invited to attend the ongoing recovery of memory and personal power that were stunted by my experience of childhood sexual abuse. An earth-based spiritual tradition rooted in Africa and premised on respect for all life is at the center of my healing journey.

  • The Politics of Visibility: Coming out and Individual and Collective Identity
    THE POLITICS OF VISIBILITY: COMING OUT AND INDIVIDUAL AND COLLECTIVE IDENTITY Nancy Whittier Smith College In Strategies for Social Change, edited by Jeff Goodwin, Rachel Kutz-Flamenbaum, Greg Maney, and Deana Rohlinger. 2012. Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 145-169. In the early 1970s, gay liberation activists began to “come out.” Gay men and lesbians publicly disclosed their sexual identities in order to celebrate their identity, display their rejection of conventional sexual and political strictures, and create social change by challenging invisibility, stigma, and assumptions about the nature of homosexuality. In the following decades, coming out became a common way for social movement participants – and those who saw themselves as allied with those movements and their constituencies – to conceptualize identity disclosures, the relation between individual and collective experience and identity, and strategies for social change. People “came out” as feminists, as conservatives, as people of color who could pass for white, as Christians, Jews, Muslims, and as survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Here, I use my research on activists against child sexual abuse to explore the relationship between identity strategies and social change. Coming out is a movement strategy that includes public identity disclosure, internal group definitions of collective identity, and emotion-laden individual transformations of identity. I analyze coming out in order to theorize the relationship between collective and individual identities and movement strategy. I argue that identity transformations are not limited in their impact to individuals; instead, coming out, as an identity strategy, targets individuals’ identities, mainstream culture, institutions, and public policy. My point here rests on two main tenets: First, collective identity – the definition of a group that is constructed by that group – cannot be fully understood without understanding individual identity as well.
