Gannon University Receives $40k from It’s On Us PA to Combat Sexual Assault on Campus

Gannon University plans to advance efforts to address sexual violence, dating violence, domestic violence and stalking education, prevention and response through a $40,000 grant as part of the Governor’s It’s On Us PA program.

The It’s On Us PA campaign is based on a core belief that sexual violence shouldn’t be part of any student’s education. Supported by Governor Josh Shapiro and education leaders across the commonwealth, including school superintendents and college presidents, It’s On Us PA is a statewide campaign that invites education leaders and all Pennsylvanians to be part of the solution to protect students from sexual violence.

The grant will provide the university’s Office of Student Accountability and Prevention Education with funding through May 2025 and will be used for training, programming, supplies and climate surveys.
