Mission: Jana's campaign inc. Was created with the single mission of reducing gender and relationship violence. Through program activities, jana's campaign aims to play a significant role in breaking the cycles of domestic and dating violence and be a catalyst for social change. Partnering with other advocates, activists, victims, the criminal justice system and lawmakers, jana's campaign seeks to reduce and respond to gender violence by pursuing a strategy built on five program areas. Through public awareness and community action; education; prevention and intervention; public policy advocacy; campus action; and engaging men and boys to reduce gender violence, the campaign's goal is to play a significant role and be a catalyst for real change.

Over 200 participants representing twelve states and 76 universities and organizations attended the summit. We hosted the rocky mountain campus safety summit in june on the campus of colorado college in colorado springs, co. Nearly 100 participants, representing nine states and 40 colleges and universities attended. In april we hosted our newest summit, the midwest campus safety summit at ball state university in muncie, indiana. This summit had over 100 participants from nine states and 34 colleges and universities. The purpose of these summits is to provide a regional and affordable two-day workshop for college and university personnel and students that will address important issues about preventing and responding to gender and relationship violence. We understand the most effective ways to prevent gender and relationship violence is to help adolescents understand what constitutes healthy vs unhealthy relationships. We believe that by empowering young people to engage in healthy and supportive relaionships and by creating a culture of strong respect among adolescents, we can ultimately reduce the instances of gender and relationship violence.
