Resources for Fraternity & Sorority Peer Education Programs

On many campuses a GAMMA group already exists and is functioning successfully. For those particular groups the new GAMMA Guide will serve as a supplement to your group's current framework and will hopefully provide helpful information as well as quality programming ideas. It is designed to allow each group to use the manual to make their group even better than it already is. On the other hand, those campuses without functioning GAMMA groups will be able to use this manual and resources to get their group up and running. It will provide everything you need to make the beginning of a well-run peer education group for fraternity and sorority students on your campus.

We have put this manual and resources together to focus and offer programming support for four major risk management and harm reduction issues: alcohol abuse, impaired driving, sexual assault and sexual health. This manual includes sections on:

• How to get a GAMMA group started - the organization development aspect
• Concrete programming ideas for your new or current group
• An annual programming calendar that may serve as a guide for your group
• Speakers that you can contact to present on your campus
• A section on how to talk with your members about the major health and safety issues mentioned above
• Information on stakeholders - how to work with other groups
• Marketing information to help promote your group's events
• Fundraising information to help create resources to conduct your group's events
• Resources available on a national level for more information on health and safety issues
