The CPN Seal of Preventionâ„¢ is awarded to institutions and organizations of higher education dedicated to student safety, well-being and inclusion through their commitment to implement evidence-based digital prevention programs. Each recipient of the CPN Seal of Preventionâ„¢ has taken action to create a safer, more inclusive campus through comprehensive, evidence-based digital prevention education on issues such as sexual assault, alcohol misuse, mental health and discrimination. The CPN Seal of Preventionâ„¢ establishes guidelines for discerning quality online prevention education and implementation practices and positions prevention as central to key institutional outcomes.
Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ received this recognition for its efforts to establish comprehensive prevention initiatives, including AlcoholEdu and sexual assault prevention programs for undergraduates.

This achievement places the university among the national leaders in prevention education and underscores the university’s commitment to fostering a safe, inclusive and informed campus community.
