Training
When Men Stopping Violence (MSV) opened its doors in 1982, there was little being done to engage men in preventing violence against women and to change the behavior of men who battered women. During the ensuing years, MSV's methodology was carefully developed, evaluated, and refined. This careful approach has established MSV as a premier national training institute in engaging men to end male violence against women. For many years, the Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women's (OVW) has recognized MSV as a leading voice in this field, contracting with the organization to conduct national training on men and women working together, effective interventions in African American communities, and training young men to work in the field of violence prevention. Having delivered training and consultation in forty-eight states, Canada, the Caribbean, Great Britain, Morocco, Ghana, Taiwan and Brazil, MSV is currently serving as a training and technical assistance provider for OVW's "Engaging Men in Preventing Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence and Stalking" program.
MSV trains leaders from all disciplines: business, non-profit, faith-based organizations, government, higher education, healthcare and more in communities and classrooms nationwide.
Whether it's individual, groups or entire organizations, MSV can provide training on individualized topics or a comprehensive series on a range of topics related to ending violence and oppression. Training and consultation varies in format according to the needs of the client.
