The guidelines outline health objectives that serve as a basis for developing plans and programs to reduce sexual and relationship violence, as well as injury prevention.

ACHA recognizes sexual and relationship violence as a serious public health issue affecting college and university campuses. Sexual and relationship violence comprise a continuum of behaviors, including but not limited to sexual/gender harassment, sexual coercion, sexual abuse, stalking, sexual assault, rape, dating violence, and domestic violence. ACHA members are uniquely positioned to play a leading role in addressing sexual and relationship violence through trauma-informed prevention, response, and support. In recognition of this campus health concern, ACHA’s Healthy Campus 2020 developed health objectives that serve as a basis for developing plans and programs to reduce sexual and relationship violence, as well as injury prevention.
