About This Event

Chrysalis Network, the NC State University Counseling Center, and the NC State University Women’s Center are excited to bring you the 13th annual Solving the Campus Sexual Assault & Dating Violence Puzzle National VIRTUAL Conference.

As the national lens continues to bring much-needed attention to the crisis of sexual and dating violence, now is the time to celebrate and learn from the transformative prevention and response work being done in and around our college communities.

This year’s conference will highlight the courageous work of those on campuses and in the community who remain relentless in their push to inspire action, accountability, and healing.

While “Puzzles”, as it has come to be known, facilitates learning opportunities in a traditional conference format, it is grounded in building community through relationships and wellness. We offer a variety of opportunities for participants to connect with each other, experience mindfulness and wellness activities, and even win cash by playing games and being part of daily engagement challenges.

All keynote and breakout sessions will be recorded and accessible to registrants through July 2027.

Dr. Saed Deryck Hill, Ph.D. is a Counseling Psychologist and Independent Consultant, who specializes in the promotion of pro-social masculinities and wellness as a means of violence prevention. He provides trainings, 1on1 coaching, and strategic consulting on the topic of expansive and restrictive masculinities and has also been featured on several podcasts and other forms of media addressing the broad topics of domestic and global prevention, divesting from the Manosphere, and how advancing technology like Artificial Intelligence (AI) is influencing men and boys online. Dr. Hill works with national organizations, school districts, higher education institutions, nonprofits, and other communities to train staff, facilitate workshops, design curricula, promote bystander intervention, and manage respondent support and alternative resolution processes.

Dr. Hill also advised the White House Task Force to Address Online Harassment and Abuse in 2022, serves as a member of The Boys Club of New York City’s Professional Advisory Council, is the President-Elect for the American Psychological Association’s Society for the Psychological Study of Men and Masculinities, and served as the Assistant Director of Prevention & Masculine Engagement at Northwestern University for six years. He also co-hosts the Why Humans? Podcast which examines how artificial intelligence is reshaping the human experience.

Dr. Hill earned his Ph.D. from The University of Missouri-Kansas City and completed his Doctoral Internship at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In his spare time, he enjoys psychoanalyzing trashy reality TV, obsessing about fantasy football, kayaking, and attempting (sometimes successfully) to cook his mother’s best Guyanese food recipes.
