Noticeably omitted from the target learners for this project are males. While men and teenage boys do encounter significant violence, even sexual assault, the typical nature of the violence and, consequently, the principles of avoidance and prevention are different from those of females.

Schools or organizations implementing this or any other violence prevention curriculum for females may also want to examine other types of violence prevention programs designed for males. One useful resource is the Office of Justice Programs with the U.S. Department of Justice. Organizations offering a VSAP curriculum for women or girls should also consider a program that involves males in the prevention of male violence against females. Such programs typically help define male roles in prevention, teach how male stereotypes and perceptions may promote the violence, and examine cultural issues that may stand as obstacles to prevention.
