The Coordinated Community Response Team (CCRT) at Cabrini University includes University and community partners to foster a commitment to safety and promote attitudes and behaviors that aid in the prevention of sexual misconduct. Focusing on education, prevention, and response, the CCRT works to create a campus climate focused on a culturally responsive, trauma‐informed, and systemic approach to addressing sexual assault, dating/domestic violence, and stalking.
The Cabrini CCRT meets twice a month and includes representatives from Cabrini University’s faculty and staff, as well as community partners from Delaware and Montgomery counties. Sub teams focus on initiatives that support Prevention Education, Victim Services, Law Enforcement/Public Safety, and Student Conduct.
The CCRT was formed in 2022 as an initiative of a campus grant awarded by the Office on Violence Against Women, US Department of Justice.
