This year, UMBC earned the Campus Prevention Network (CPN) Seal of Prevention™ from Vector Solutions. The CPN Seal of Prevention™ is awarded to schools who have gone above and beyond to create a safer, more supportive learning environment through the use of digital prevention programming. 

One key initiative contributing to this recognition is UMBC's mandatory student training, managed by the Office of Equity and Civil Rights. This annual training helps students build healthy relationships, intervene when they're worried about a peer's safety, and respond effectively to sexual violence when it occurs.

This Seal honors UMBC's commitment to sexual violence prevention, student success, and community well-being. Awardees are statistically more likely to keep students enrolled and graduating on time.
