Minneapolis, MN and Rehoboth Beach, DE (April, 2015) - 360° Stay Safe and D. Stafford and Associates (DSA) on Friday announced a strategic partnership to help higher education institutions across the country get better access to compliance training for students and employees. DSA will lend its expertise to 360° Stay Safe to ensure that schools programs are compliant with all of the new primary prevention and on-going awareness education program requirements put in place through the Violence Against Women Act. As news of campus-related crimes and sexual assault allegations mount across the United States, colleges and universities are working to build safer campus communities. In order to support and enforce the Violence Against Women Act provisions of the Clery Act, the White House has recently launched the Not Alone initiative and created the Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault. As a result of these initiatives and others, campuses nationwide are seeking to find ways to come into compliance as well as to better equip students with tools and information to promote personal safety. Enter 360° Stay Safe and DSA Two companies with extensive backgrounds in developing and delivering affordable and easy-to-implement research-based training products and services for colleges and universities that promote compliance as well as safe and healthy campus communities.
