WHO WE ARE

Love Level Up of Safe Space Inc.

Rape Prevention Program (RPE) is Funded by the North Carolina Dept. Of Health and Human Services.

RPE is primary prevention: stopping sexual violence before it begins.

RPE’s Mission: To reduce the incidents of sexual violence and interpersonal relationship violence

What do we do?

We provide evidenced-based or evidenced informed curricula on healthy relationships and sexual violence primary prevention to students K-12 and college/university youth/adolescents, and young adults, using Shifting Boundaries, Safe Dates, and A Call to Men. The RPE coordinator will deliver virtual monthly sessions, unless able to meet face to face safely due to COVID-19. Adaptations to programming will include engaging with youth in a manner that teaches the components of healthy relationships.

What are we working on this year?

So glad you asked! Our goal is to better serve the youth and young adults in our community through prevention, education, outreach and empowering youth to use the power of their voice!

Love Level Up Guiding Principles

  • Preventing the first-time occurrence of sexual violence.
  • Reducing risk factors and enhancing protective factors linked to sexual violence perpetration and victimization.
  • Implementing comprehensive strategies that address individual, relationship, community, and societal factors.
