VICTORY! Grand Valley Administration verbally commits to creating a mandatory consent and sexual violence program as well as a volunteer confidential crisis team.

Students from the Michigan Student Power Network (MSPN, also known as United Students Against Sweatshops Local #77) met with Grand Valley administration this morning to discuss their demands for better sexual assault prevention on campus. The group had delivered a letter of demand to administration a week prior.

“We are pleased to say that by the end of our meeting, Grand Valley administration verbally committed to implementing a mandatory aspect to our sexual assault prevention on campus, as well as the creation of a volunteer confidential crisis response team. The volunteers would be trained to handle trauma and sexual assault advocacy as well as deescalation. We look forward to working closely with administration to protect our survivors,” states a representative from MSPN.
