A long-time partner of MMII, Turning Point of Macomb will provide education and enriching dialogue to our College community on the topic of Gender Respect. This presentation will consider traditional binary gender roles and how those roles often normalize violence and contribute to an unequal balance of power. Turning Point staff will provide examples from the media to educate our students and employees on the impact media sends about gender roles and how this relates to domestic and sexual violence. Participants will become more aware of the role they play in combatting these messages and reflect upon the value of this information in the environment of a higher education institution.
