A community conversation about how we can prevent violence before it happens by shifting norms in our own circles.

Often, we imagine bystander intervention as something we do in the moment to prevent a violent crime in progress. This workshop takes a step back, and explores how we can prevent violence before it happens by shifting norms in our own circles. What if we started to think about bystander intervention earlier and as something we can engage in every day? What if we imagine ourselves as bystanders to a culture that enables sexual violence, and sought to intervene by shifting the norms that perpetuate it, even in small ways?

This workshop is for everyone! Invite a friend and arrive with an open mind. Earth's will have snacks and drinks available for purchase throughout the event. We can't wait to see you there!

*This workshop will include discussions about sexual violence with a focus on prevention.
*If cost is a barrier please email forbetterconsented@gmail.com for more information about free or reduced cost tickets.
