Women's Resources Center First Year Campus Acquaintance Rape Education (FYCARE) Welcome > Login to Site > Select C.A.R.E. Class > Confirmation Introduction What is FYCARE? The First Year Campus Acquaintance Rape Education [FYCARE] workshop is an interactive discussion on sexual assault that strives to build awareness and our capacity to create healthier relationships. This program recognizes that sexual assault is an act rooted in gender inequality, but also one that affects people of all gender-identities. Workshops are led by trained peer facilitators through an engaging discussion in a relaxed atmosphere, drawing upon their own experiences as students on this campus to keep the workshop informative and relatable. What will FYCARE be about? FYCARE discusses the dynamics of sexual assault, consent, bystander intervention, ways to support a survivor, and campus and community resources. Workshops are hosted in residence halls and centrally located academic buildings. As a significant public health concern that impacts an estimated 1 in 5 women and 1 in 16 men during their undergraduate career, FYCARE focuses on the ways that all students can be involved bystanders who can look out for the safety of one another.

Fact: It's important that everyone learn about rape, so we can support ourselves and the loved ones around us. Men who do not rape are directly affected by men who do. Men can be survivors of sexual assault too, and men are also likely to know someone who is a sexual assault survivor and may even be a support person for them.
