Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Office (https://svpro.mcmaster.ca/)

The Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Office is delighted to invite you to consider joining us in January 2026 for the launch of our inaugural Breakfast Book Club initiative.

Join the Breakfast Book Club: Reflective Reading on Sexual Violence
Hosted by the Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Office (SVPRO) team, the Breakfast Book Club brings together faculty and management staff for thoughtful, reflective conversations on sexual violence through literature. Each monthly session creates space to explore diverse perspectives, deepen understanding, and support those in positions to share these insights with students and colleagues—all over coffee and a light breakfast.

Our first session will be held on Wednesday, January 14, 2026, from 9:00–10:30am (location to be determined). Books will be provided to the first 15 participants who express interest. Our first book will be: Sexual Citizens [https://www.sexualcitizens.com/]
