Marc Peters is a Co-Founder and Facilitation Lead at Community Facilitators. He possess expertise in strategic communications, blogging, social media, public speaking, fundraising and 31 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Marc is one of the most incredible people I have ever had the opportunity to work with! He is deeply committed to serving the Brown student body and to deconstructing patriarchy across the campus. He is so creative in his approach to reaching different populations across the University and to effecting change. He puts so much thought into how to care for students and how to make all students feel safe, especially in group settings. Marc is extremely organized and hardworking, and beyond that he also really knows how to connect with and care for people in his role. I know the work that he is doing at Brown around Masculinity is going to set a standard for other campuses across the country. He is an inspiring activist and mentor, and I would recommend him for any role!", "As a Sexual Assault Peer Educator at Brown, I facilitated conversations for three years with various groups on campus—first-years, Greek houses, athletic teams, clubs. It was during this time that Marc began leading this initiative. With his guidance, support, and resources, we began adapting our conversations to better meet the needs we felt each group required, added significant numbers to our facilitation team without sacrificing quality or training, reassessed the efficacy of our education process, and reaffirmed our mission of eradicating sexual violence by proactively and compassionately engaging with our peers in these difficult but necessary conversations. Marc mastered the challenging balance between empowering us students to take initiative while providing unconditional and measured support: he helped us develop plans of our own, he had our backs when faced with hostile or antagonistic students, and he proposed new ideas and sought our guidance on implementation. It takes a strong leader to guide a student group but an even stronger one to practice humility — there were many of us students engaged in these conversations on the front lines for some time before Marc joined Brown, and he never ceased to express his genuine appreciation for our work and experience. I am so thankful for Marc’s role in continuing to foster a collaborative, communicative, and supportive culture amongst the Peer Educators.", and "Marc Peters is an unparalleled mentor, leader, and community advocate. I worked with Marc very closely my senior year at Brown University, mostly in a student governance capacity, and I have yet to encounter someone who is more committed to and passionate about his students. Simply put, Marc genuinely cares. He will go to extraordinary measures to ensure the safety, security, and well-being of his students. Marc is an incredibly skilled navigator of communities and community issues. He's incredibly thoughtful about integrating and embedding himself as a trusted member of student groups and spaces. And once he's welcomed into those spaces, he's so incredibly intentional about listening and listening carefully. It's those beautifully-cultivated listening skills that really lend themselves to making Marc an effective advocate for his students. So far in his tenure at Brown, Marc has been instrumental in the push for a culture shift at Brown when in comes to addressing and dismantling systems of power and privilege (in the realms of gender, race, socioeconomic status and more) on campus. And with his unstoppable determination and genuine passion, I have no doubt that Marc's vision for a just and equitable campus will be fulfilled."
