Relationship and Sexual Violence Prevention Program

You are not alone.

The Relationship and Sexual Violence Prevention Program (RSVP) works with the Merced College campus community to create effective, comprehensive responses to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.  Our approach includes both prevention and intervention strategies that communicate to the entire campus community that these crimes will not be tolerated.
