As announced at the meeting Alpha Zeta together with the VIP-Center (Violence Intervention and Prevention) will host a SEEDS training for our Section. It will be March 28th at 10:30 am here on UK's campus. Other chapters from our section will join us to go through 2 hours of intense violence prevention training!

Don't know what SEEDS is? SEEDS (Students Educating and Empowering to Develop Safety) is a training to teach each of us how to react in high risk situations. (For example if a drunk girl is being taken upstairs by a drunk guy. Would you know what to do in a situation like that? Would you just let them go upstairs or would you actually do something about it?)
Don't know what the VIP-Center is? The VIP is a place where victims of Power-based violence can go and reach out for help. But it is also a place where you can learn all about the issue of Power-based violence and the GREEN DOT!

WHY YOU SHOULD DO THE SEEDS TRAINING WITH APO? It is a fact that 1 in 3 Women on any campus in the USA , is or will be a victim of violence while attending university. Just imagine three of your lady brothers, can you believe that at least one of them is or will be a victim of violence? We might not be able to make a huge impact on every campus in the USA, but we sure can make one in UK's community by attending SEEDS. With this training you will be able to prevent situations from happening and maybe safe a brother, friend or a stranger from going through a trauma that she never imagined to go through.
