EDUCATION & OUTREACH
Community Programs
We offer free presentations and facilitated dialogues to community groups and individuals about domestic and/or sexual violence, signs and interventions and other related topics. This is a great way to learn more about the issues and take a stand through partnership with ASPEN. Participating groups have included faith-based groups, civic and service clubs and community interest organizations.
​
ASPEN also works with professionals and businesses, offering a wide variety of training options tailored to each group.
TREE Youth Program
ASPEN’s Trust Respect Empowerment Empathy (TREE) program aims to promote healthy relationships and help prevent bullying and later teen dating violence. Empowering youth with positive relationships fosters success and can end cycles of violence. TREE uses a variety of evidence-based curriculums and programs to create what each school needs including Power Up Speak Out developed here in Montana by DSVS. All TREE materials are available for viewing by parents, teachers and administrators. Contact jessica@aspenmt.org for more information.
ASPEN Lunch & Learn Programs
ASPEN’s goal in providing Lunch & Learn presentations is to increase awareness of community needs and to provide resources and education that support the prevention of inter relational violence. We include topics ranging from basic information to powerful social structures such as imbalances of power to marginalized populations. Lunch & Learn lectures cultivate individuals and communities that do not tolerate violence and that support healthy relationships and gender equality and work to shift deeply ingrained attitudes, beliefs and behaviors that contribute to violence in our culture.
