Rutgers School of Social Work’s Center for Research on Ending Violence (REV) has launched a new online training course designed to help physicians across New Jersey prevent sexual misconduct, better support survivors, and foster safer healthcare environments.
When New Jersey teens age out of the child welfare and foster care system, they often lose access to food, housing, and transportation, as well as academic and professional connections. A Rutgers program supported by donors, including a recent $100,000 gift from two alumni, helps undergraduates who have experienced the child welfare system or homelessness.
A forum hosted by the Rutgers School of Social Work’s Center for Research on Ending Violence recognized a gift in support of scholarships and honored a Rutgers alumna.
