Engage is a multi-level violence prevention program, created by Missouri Partners in Prevention in with support from the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services Office on Women’s Health in collaboration with the Missouri Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence. The aim of the work of Missouri Partners in Prevention and our partners, was to create a multi-level violence prevention strategy that is both accessible and adaptable and have fidelity to the model that is created. The strategy that we’ve developed frames bystander behavior within the context of community connection and sense of belonging.
