DELTA Project: Primary Prevention for Adolescent Men

The Dane County DELTA Project is a community-based, collaborative primary prevention project that seeks to eradicate domestic violence and sexual assault through social change and community building.

The DELTA Project works with young men and the adults who interact with them to identify and eliminate the root causes that contribute to abusive behavior.

We work in high schools and community centers across Dane County, as well as the University of Wisconsin-Madison. To learn more about the DELTA Project and how you can get involved, please visit www.DaneDELTAProject.com or email Theresa Kuehl, DELTA Project Coordinator, at theresak@abuseintervention.org.
