Men’s Engagement Group

The Men’s Engagement Group informs SAFE’s efforts to engage men as volunteers, employees, and survivors. The MEG was established for SAFE employees, volunteers, and community members to bring their skills, experiences, relationships, and knowledge to advise SAFE on ways to better engage people who identify as men. This includes working on projects, discussing the role men play in preventing violence and abuse, and advising others on ways to model healthy masculinity.
