DeKalb Prevention Project: The DeKalb Prevention Project is a complex program comprised of many different interventions and stakeholder groups. Three main strategic lines have been identified for the program: (1) Communications and Dissemination (2) Training and Capacity Building, (3) Partnerships and InstitutionalChange.
Mens Education Program: MSV directly intervenes with more than 2,000 men per year through telephone contacts, orientation classes, basic domestic violence education classes and more in-depth 24-week classes. Classes are provided for men who need to learn ways to be in relationships without using emotional, physical or other forms of abuse. Reliable data including police reports, witness statements and emergency room reports indicate that men are the aggressors in over 75 percent of incidents of interpersonal violence. Many cases go unreported and many more behaviors that men use should be incorporated into the category of abusive behavior. In fact, many men who come to MSV have never physically struck another person in a relationship. They have, however, used a wide range of controlling and abusive behaviors over a sustained period of time establishing a pattern and climate of fear.
Kappa Alpha Psi/DeKalb Solicitor project: MSV and KAP work together to bring a greater understanding of violence against women, particularly the importance of men being allies in the work of ending violence against women, to the young men and boys who are benefitting from the mentorship programs of KAP. This process will begin with MSV providing education for KAP members who influence the young men we are seeking to recruit as allies.
