The Clothesline Project
The Clothesline Project (CLP) is a program started on Cape Cod, MA, in 1990 to address the issue of violence against women. It is a vehicle for women affected by violence to express their emotions by decorating a shirt. They then hang the shirt on a clothesline to be viewed by others as testimony to the problem of violence against women.

Cook and Be Well
Recently there has been a renewed emphasis on cooking and eating at home because it results in healthier people and communities.  For the purpose of encouraging cooking and eating at home, we email a different healthy recipe weekly to the Dickinson State University community.

Group Discussions
These are opportunities for students to meet with an expert on a specific health topic for the purpose of in-depth discussion.
