This survey and report was initiated by the Vermont Governor’s Prevention of Domestic and Sexual Violence Task Force (GPDSVTF) and supported by the Vermont Network Against Domestic and Sexual Violence and the Vermont Department of Health with funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Rape Prevention and Education cooperative agreement.
Goal: The goals of this project are as follows:
- To provide guidance for service providers to develop future training and education programs;
- To provide a benchmark to measure improvements/declines over time in male attitudes in Vermont towards the prevention of domestic and sexual violence against women;
- To provide a tool for local and state-wide non-profits for fundraising, grant-writing and other purposes.
There are not many studies in the U.S. that measure male attitudes around these issues. The results provide valuable insights into our engaging men's work.
