Ten Men
Engaging Men in Prevention

Prevention: Programs

Ten Men applications will open in early 2025! ​

​

Ten Men is a cohort of male-identifying individuals from the Greater Charlottesville area who meet monthly to learn, discuss, and create ways to promote safety in their communities. By serving as allies and empowered bystanders, the Ten Men are committed to actively preventing sexual violence and fostering a culture of respect in their communities.  ​

​

Each year, a new cohort will:   

  • Gather 7 times to connect, listen, share, and learn about primary prevention and bystander intervention.  

  • Identify the intersections of their lived experiences and opportunities for increasing community protective factors.  

  • Create a Personal Action Project that provides education and access to resources within their community.   ​

 

This program was developed and created by Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence and the SAFE Men program. The project is grant-funded by the Office of Violence Against Women.
