The work of the organization now known as HazingPrevention.Org grew out of a meeting hosted by the Association of Fraternity Advisors in 2003. A brainstorming session generated the idea of a national symposium on the issue of hazing, and CAMPUSPEAK, a college speakers agency, began to plan such an event for the following year. Once the symposium was a reality, the idea for a national prevention week followed, and both programs were operated by CAMPUSPEAK, with the help of some important sponsors for three years. During the summer of 2007, both programs were donated by CAMPUSPEAK to the newly formed non-profit organization, HazingPrevention.Org, in the hopes that the hazing prevention efforts could expand and reach even more students, parents, advisors, campus professionals and national organizations. HazingPrevention.Org, with the support of several sponsoring organizations, continues to provide a variety of educational programs and services in fulfillment of its mission to “empower people to prevent hazing” in college and university student groups.
