Welcome to Green Dot Gonzaga

Ending Violence - One Green Dot at a time!

 What's Up with all of the Green Dots?

A strategy! 

Green Dot is a Power-Based Personal Violence prevention campaign being implemented on Gonzaga's campus this year!  What is Power-Based Personal Violence (PBPV)?
“Power-based personal violence is a form of violence that has as a primary motivator the assertion of power, control and/or intimidation in order to harm another. This includes partner violence, sexual assault, stalking, and other uses of force, threat, intimidation, or harassment of an individual. It also includes the use of alcohol or drugs to commit any of these acts. These acts are inclusive of acts committed by strangers, friends, acquaintances, intimates, or other persons.”  (Source: Ending Violence...One Green Dot at a Time, Dorothy J. Edwards, PhD)

This comprehensive approach to violence prevention capitalizes on the power of peer and cultural influence! Together, we can change the culture on Gonzaga's campus and bring an end to violence in our community!

We are Zags!
We are Bulldogs! 
Together, WE ARE GONZAGA!

No one has to do everything...
                                                                     but everyone has to do something!
