National Hazing Prevention Week
September 22-26, 2025
Organized by Hazing Prevention Network, National Hazing Prevention Week (NHPW) is a time when communities, institutions, organizations, and individuals make a concerted effort to raise awareness and increase education about hazing. NHPW is officially held the last full week of September each year; however, anyone is welcome to organize a hazing prevention week at any point of the year. The fundamental objective is to have a specific time in which the entire community is focused on engaging in intentional discussions about the problem of hazing.
Empowering people to prevent hazing
Together, our work continues as an international leader in hazing prevention with the ultimate goal of teaching people to move beyond punishment and create a culture that stops hazing before it starts.
