What is SAPIR?
SAPIR stands for Sexual Assault Prevention, Intervention and Response Task Force. It is a coordinating council of campus constituents that play key roles in making the campus a safer place by enacting the educational and compliance requirements associated with the Campus Sexual Violence Elimination Act (SaVE Act).
The task force provides a forum for planning and coordinating primary prevention education for students, faculty and staff; articulation of victims' rights; coordination of message and dissemination of information; training for students, faculty and staff. SAPIR also sponsors events aimed at raising awareness of sexual assault and intimate partner violence on campus.
SAPIR members meets monthly, on the fourth Tuesday of every month, except for July and December. The meetings are held at the Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) conference room from 2:30-4:00pm.
