Student Involvement Opportunities in Peer Education
The Center for Women Students advises two Peer Education Organizations. These groups (MAV and PHREE) provide educational programming, as well as collaborate with other student groups on campus to inform others about women's issues... CWS staff members, as well as members of these two student organizations, are available to make presentations during your classroom, staff meeting or other event by request.
If you would like to get involved with the Center for Women Students, stop by our office or attend the next meeting for one of the groups below.
Men Against Violence
Mission Statement: Men Against Violence (MAV) oppose sexual violence and domestic abuse in all of its manifestations. MAV is a group of male students, faculty, staff, and community members that seeks to stop violence directed toward women. To accomplish this, MAV specifically asks men to join together to demonstrate a model of masculinity that helps and heals, not harms and hurts.

Peers Helping Reaffirm, Educate, and Empower (PHREE)
Peers Helping Reaffirm, Educate and Empower (PHREE) utilizes a peer-based approach to educate and promote awareness about some of the most critical issues facing college students today. As members of PHREE, women come together to talk and share experiences, while learning the valuable skills needed to be peer educators in the campus community. As a diverse group, PHREE students also work to collaborate, support one other, and most importantly, to have fun with others who share similar interests.
PHREE members are responsible for facilitating educational programs and participating in other types of campus activities to raise awareness about issues such as sexual assault, rape, sexual harassment, healthy relationships, and body image. Specific examples of events are: Love Your Body Day, Turn Beauty Inside Out, and Sexual Assault Awareness Month tabling. For more information about becoming a member, or to learn more about any of our activities, please stop by the Center for Women Students, or email PHREE@sa.psu.edu.
