Become a Peer Educator

Peer educators play a vital role in promoting a healthy campus culture and eliminating power-based interpersonal violence on Penn State's campus. Peer educators facilitate conversations around healthy relationships, consent, and bystander intervention, teaching their fellow Penn Staters on the role they play eliminating violence and supporting survivors.

The R-VOICE Center coordinates peer education groups, which meet weekly, plan events throughout the year, and are trained to provide educational programming on topics like sexual assault, relationship violence, stalking, gender stereotypes, and more.
