1. For several years I learned to be a preventionist, through my work on an R.P.E. Grant. Subsequently, I worked on a sex offender containment team as the victim’s voice in my role as an advocate. I always felt that my work on the containment team was primary prevention, though I was told it was secondary prevention. Thank you for the affirmation.

2. Thank you for the affirmation that working with sexual offenders is akin to primary prevention of sexual assault.
