Materials on Prison Rape Survival Available

Loaded on Jan. 15, 1994 published in Prison Legal News January, 1994, page 14
Filed under: Sexual Assault, Prisoner-Prisoner Assault, Resources. Location: United States of America.
The Safer Society Program has recently produced and published a series of audio tapes made by ex-prisoners specifically for men confined in jails and prisons. Rape in prison is an important issue that has received all too little attention due to the stigmas attached to the subject. With virtually no materials available on the subject this effort meets a definite need.

The Prisoner Rape Education Project consists of a 27 minute audio tape emphasizing sexual assault avoidance tactics intended for use in prisoner orientation programs. Becoming a Survivor is a 90 minute audio tape emphasizing survival issues for victims of sexual assault in prison. Overview for Jail/Prison Administrators and Staff is a 46 page manual for staff. All these materials are available in Spanish as well as English versions. The full set of materials is available for $20.00 plus $5.00 shipping from: Safer Society Press, P.O. Box 340, Brandon, VT. 05733. (802) 247-3132. Prisoners can obtain a free copy of tape 2, Becoming a Survivor , from: SPR, C/O ABC No Rio, 156 Rivington St. NY. NY. 10002.
