Sumario:Although 2-year institutions report higher rates of sexual violence (SV) than 4-year institutions, few resources exist to address SV on these campuses. The present study describes and assesses the impact of a 3-year initiative to engage personnel and students at seven 2-year colleges and community professionals to increase the effectiveness of SV prevention and response strategies. We administered a climate survey during the first and third year of this initiative. Compared with 2017 participants, 2019 participants reported increases in awareness of campus resources and perceptions of SV. Implications and suggestions for prevention and response efforts at 2-year institutions are discussed.
