Conference Overview
The NC State University Counseling Center is proud to partner with Chrysalis Network to bring the 6th Annual Solving the Campus Sexual Assault & Dating Violence Puzzle National Conference to NC State University.
As the national lens continues to bring much needed attention to the crisis of sexual and dating violence, now is the time, more than ever, to spotlight, celebrate, and learn from the transformative prevention and response work being done in and around our campus communities.
This year’s conference will highlight the courageous work of those on campuses and in the community, who remain relentless in their push against the cultural norms of silence, victim-blaming, and minimization, to instead create safe, healthy, and accountable communities.
While “Puzzles”, as it has come to be known, facilitates learning opportunities in a traditional conference format, it is also a space grounded in building community through relationships and wellness. With an attendance cap of 250, and a plentiful and hard-working dedicated team ready to meet your needs, participants regularly share that they feel connected, supported, inspired and rejuvenated. Please join us this year as we continue to work together to solve the campus sexual assault & dating violence puzzle.

#PuzzlesNC2019
The NC State Counseling Center is proud to partner with the Chrysalis Network to bring the “Solving the Campus Sexual Assault & Dating Violence Puzzle” conference back to NC State campus this year. The Counseling Center is dedicated to being a part of the solution when it comes to sexual assault and interpersonal violence. We recognize the impact these traumatic experiences have on survivors, their friends and family, the campus and larger community as a whole. We also know that there is a stigma regarding what it means to be a survivor of sexual assault and interpersonal violence. With this stigma, survivors can feel unseen, unheard and unsupported. We understand how much courage it takes to reach out. We strive to “Stop the Stigma” and want survivors to know that we see you, we hear you and we are here to support you.
This year’s conference will be held in the beautiful and newly renovated Talley Student Center on NC State’s campus. This location is on NC State’s main campus making it a quick walk or FREE bus ride from either hotel.

Dr. Rebecca Campbell
Dr. Rebecca Campbell is a Professor of Psychology at Michigan State University. Dr. Campbell’s research examines how contact with the legal and medical systems affects sexual assault survivor’s well-being. Most recently, she was the lead researcher for the National Institute of Justice-funded Detroit Sexual Assault Kit Action Research Project, which was a four-year multidisciplinary study of Detroit’s untested rape kits. Dr. Campbell also conducts training for law enforcement and multidisciplinary practitioners in civilian, military, and campus community settings on the neurobiology of trauma.
Presentation Title: Who Are the People In Your Neighborhood? Building A Trauma-Informed Response to Campus Sexual Assault Through Community Partnerships
In this presentation, Dr. Campbell will present data from a new national-scale project on the challenges of responding to campus sexual assaults. This session will begin by examining the multiple competing interests and the conflicts inherent in building a campus response to sexual assault. With that context, we will then examine new data on unintended negative consequences of compelled disclosure policies (often referred to as mandatory reporting policies). We explore how these conflicts and challenges may be mitigated through successful campus-community partnerships.

Presentation Title: The Image of Transition: Enacting Strategies to End Campus Sexual Violence
Film Screening & Discussion
Roll Red Roll is a true-crime thriller and impact campaign that goes behind the headlines of the notorious Steubenville, Ohio rape case to uncover the deep-seated and social media-fueled “boys will be boys” culture at the root of high school sexual assault in America. The film unflinchingly asks, why didn’t anyone stop it? The impact campaign engages communities around the nation to answer this question for themselves, creating opportunities, tools and pathways for men and boys to challenge ingrained thinking about masculinity and explore their leadership potential in the fight against gender-based violence.
