The Violence Prevention Initiative (VPI) began as a grassroots movement, driven by students, to address violence in a constructive and more comprehensive way. It has become a means to bring the Notre Dame community together, united in providing support for survivors of violence and creating a culture where such violence is not permitted.
The Violence Prevention Initiative Aims to:
Raise awareness about violence in the local community
Increase understanding about global violence
Promote the healing of survivors of violence
Serve as a flagship for violence prevention programming on Catholic campuses
