COMMUNITY OUTREACH

# Prevention starts with education.

Solace Community Outreach transforms workplaces, schools, and communities through evidence-based training and prevention programming. We believe violence is preventable—and that everyone has a role to play in creating safer, more responsive environments. From youth-led peer education to workplace violence prevention training, we build capacity for communities to recognize, respond to, and prevent harm.

## Why Prevention Matters

### The Case for Prevention

For every dollar spent on prevention, communities save $7 in crisis response, criminal justice, and healthcare costs. More importantly, prevention stops harm before it happens—creating safer schools, workplaces, and communities for everyone.

**Research shows that evidence-based prevention programs:**

- Reduce rates of dating violence among youth
- Increase bystander intervention in harmful situations
- Improve organizational response to employees experiencing violence
- Create cultural shifts toward accountability and respect
- Build community capacity to recognize and interrupt harm

## Prevention is Everyone's Responsibility
