Meet Rachel Maccabee, the new interim director of Violence Awareness and Prevention (VARP)! With her Master of Science degree in Conflict Analysis & Resolution, certifications in confidential advocacy and civil mediation, and passion, she is a great fit. “I was excited to hear of the position opening and knew that it would be a good fit for me. I love working at Minnesota State University, Mankato, and I am very glad to be able to serve and work with all of our amazing student body.” Exciting initiatives on the horizon include an 8-week yoga series called “Come to Your Mat,” to empower survivors of sexual violence, as well as the introduction of the Red Flag Campaign during National Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
