PREPARE (Policy Group on Rape Education, Prevention and Response) was founded in 1987 by Wake Forest students. The purpose of PREPARE is to:

• develop, plan and coordinate programs to educate the Wake Forest community about acquaintance rape and sexual assault prevention
• provide services for victims of rape and sexual assault through programs such as the PREPARE student advocate program

What do we do?
Here's a sample (more details in the About Us section):

• conduct mandatory sexual assault awareness and prevention programs for all incoming first-year students
• conduct a campus-wide Sexual Assault Awareness Week called "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Week"
• provide about 60 trained male and female facilitators to conduct educational and awareness programs
• sponsor a campus-wide program called "Sex Signals" to further educate students on issues of dating, gender, consent and sexual assault
• provide 20 trained student advocates who respond to student victims of sexual assault
• carry a cell phone so that students have 24-hour access to information and support after a sexual assault
