“We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee.” Marian Wright Edelman |
Purpose
Our purpose is to serve as a centralized location for all victim services, education, prevention and intervention efforts related to issues of relationship violence, stalking and sexual violence against women at Nicholls State University. The office will strive to reduce barriers to education that women face in completing and/or beginning their education, especially barriers associated with threats to safety and its psychological effects.
