Stop the Violence Initiative - A Partnership with the kNOwMORE Campaign


About the Initiative

Omega men are taking leadership to prevent violence against women and children in the African-American community.

 

In July 2007, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. made a pledge to prevent all forms of violence affecting the African-American community.  To address domestic, sexual, and community violence, Omega men are taking a critically important step by saying that all forms of violence are wrong, and that we need to mentor and teach each other the importance of healthy, non-violent relationships.


 The Omega Psi Phi Toolkit is a resource for our chapters around the world to develop and implement programs on the ground to prevent violence, encourage the respect of our daughters, our sisters, our mothers, our aunts, and promote nonviolent relationships.  It is time for all of us to stand up and say no more!
