Violence Intervention and Prevention

The Violence Intervention and Prevention Program (VIP) is a collaboration between the Office of Sexual Assault & Relationship Abuse Education & Response (SARA) and the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life. The VIP Program is an opportunity offered to representatives from the Stanford fraternity and sorority community who are committed to addressing the issues of sexual and relationship violence on campus. Fraternity and sorority representatives will engage with one another within a small cohort of Violence Intervention and Prevention Chairs (VIP Chairs) and gain the skills and training necessary to facilitate a wide range of educational programs for their respective chapter and for the Greek community and Stanford community as a whole. The VIP Program was founded on the belief that students can come together in their community to educate themselves on topics related to sexual and relationship violence and provide peer to peer education and support to members of their respective communities. This program is a best practice and national model and is open to any student who is a member of a recognized fraternity or sorority on campus.
