Requested Workshop: Inaction is Action: Understanding Bystanders Workshop

Bystanders are people who witness situations and don’t intervene because “it’s none of my business,” or because they assume that they cannot do anything to affect change. This interactive workshop engages students participants to explore how the everyday actions (or inactions) of bystanders can encourage or discourage sexual and relationship violence in their communities. This workshop can be presented to students and/or to professionals. Depending on the audience, presenters will include SVPRP professional staff and/or Peer Educators.
