Being an Active Bystander in Honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month

Tuesday, April 27, 2021   6:00–7:00 p.m.  

This year’s theme for Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) is “We Can Build Safe Online Spaces.” In honor of that, join BARCC for a free webinar workshop on tools to be a successful bystander to prevent sexual violence. We will talk about opportunities for intervention and a wide variety of bystander strategies. This one-hour workshop is for anyone who wants to explore how they can make their community safer.

This workshop will be facilitated by two BARCC outreach and education volunteers. These volunteers represent the “advocating for change” part of BARCC’s mission. They go through extensive training to deliver training on supporting survivors and bystander intervention, as well as facilitate discussions with our Survivor Speakers Bureau.

Our mission is to end sexual violence. We empower survivors of sexual violence to heal and provide education and advocacy for social change to prevent sexual violence.
