Recipients of 2020 EVERFI Impact Award Announced

EVERFI, Inc., the leading social impact education innovator, today named two institutions of higher education as the winners of the 2020 EVERFI Impact Award. The EVERFI Impact Award recognizes an institution’s commitment to creating a safe and healthy campus environment through its demonstrated excellence in comprehensive alcohol and other drug misuse, and sexual assault prevention efforts. Michigan State University’s dedication to sexual assault prevention is exemplified by its Prevention, Outreach, and Education Department. The Prevention, Outreach, and Education Department provides in-person and online programming including athletic staff and students, fraternity and sorority students, first- and second-year students, faculty, staff, and graduate students. The Department works collaboratively with other members of the campus community and the 11-member team is constantly engaging leadership and empowering campus community members to improve the climate, create an environment free of relationship and sexual violence, and positively affect social change. Michigan State also demonstrates its commitment to prevention by requiring undergraduate students to receive training every year.
