SCREAM
Athletes is
another program offered by the department and is based on the SCREAM model
but performs specifically for members of the athletic community. SCREAM
Athletes uses student athletes as peer educators to explore attitudes,
beliefs, community standards, and aspects of the athletic culture that
support the occurrence of interpersonal violence, as well as the strengths
of the community that can be used to create social change. As athletes,
the peer educators understand the pressures, relationships, and stresses
that other student-athletes experience. They are also able to identify and
emphasize the leadership role that athletes can assume on these issues.
The program is a
collaborative effort with the Rutgers Intercollegiate Athletic Department.
SCREAM Athletes performs for all first, second, and third-year
student-athletes at Rutgers, for University coaches, for student-athletes
at colleges and high schools locally and nationwide, and at
conferences.
For more information
on scheduling a SCREAM Athletes performance, please contact
Sharon Zucker, Coordinator of Peer Education, at 732-932-1181 or srzucker@rci.rutgers.edu.
