Roy brings on Eric, the newest member to the education and outreach team at SAFE on Main, and they discuss some attributes, behaviors, and roles associated with men. Eric will be leading community level prevention efforts and some of which will include engaging men in our communities.

Jacy and Roy talk about the recent case out of Stillwater, Oklahoma where Jesse Butler received 150 hours of community service after raping and violently assaulting two teen girls from his high school.

Jacy and Roy explore data and how statistics seem a bit like victim blaming. 1 in 3 women experience SA puts the emphasis on women rather than the men perpetrating the assault. Roy and Jacy talk about reframing our statistics to illustrate it isn't just happening to them but that someone is doing it to them.

Roy brings Jacy into the podcast room for her introductory show as the new interim cohost of Prevention Nation. Jacy and Roy talk stress and mental health and offer some strategies and tips for managing our worries in healthy ways.

Abby and Roy close out their summer conversations by beginning their 25/26 school-year discussion on what to expect and how to navigate this transition.

Roy and Abby discuss the recent and very public display of infidelity played out over the Jumbotron at the Coldplay concert. They discuss specifics of the incident and how it relates to their work in teaching about healthy relationships.

Lyric joins Roy and Abby for a conversation about youth involvement in prevention work, the importance of youth voice in the field of prevention, and how effective peer-to-peer education and support is.

Abby and Roy come back after a short break with their season 8 opener talking about the busy summer season for Education & Outreach here at SAFE on Main. They share about community events and Prevention in the Park (PIP).

Thank you to 4C for Children, North Pohl Farms and their alpacas, Suzanne the beekeeper, and other community partners for your ongoing support at PIP.
