Adaptation of a violence prevention program in intimate relationships in college settings

This project is led by Marie-Ève Blackburn, in collaboration with Jacinthe Dion and funded by the Fondation Asselin.

Intimate relationship violence awareness and prevention campaigns are not specifically aimed at members of the college student community. However, this community is not immune to exposure of this violence. The colleges’ psychosocial services also testify that the number of interventions that must be carried out in this regard clearly demonstrate this. Thus, it was proposed to adapt the Étincelles program to college students. The project will begin in January, 2022 and end in June, 2024.
