The application for Greeks Against Sexual Assault (GASA) is now open. For those of you who may not be familiar with GASA, it is a peer-facilitated group run by OFSL and the Women’s Center. The goal of Greeks Against Sexual Assault is to train members of fraternities and sororities so they can then positively influence their peers by challenging social norms that promote gender-based violence; understanding their connection to survivors of gender-based violence; and role modeling effective bystander interventions.

The weekly meetings will explore issues of gender, privilege, social justice and how we can stop sexual assault and interpersonal violence, specifically within the Greek community. The facilitators, Fallon Foster and Alyssa Pingitore, encourage anyone interested to apply to be a part of this unique experience and become well-informed members of the Greek community. The application is set to close on December 11th. Please reach out to us with any questions or concerns at GASA@uconn.edu.

Here is link to the application, and we look forward to hearing from you: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GASA2016
