Event Description:In this workshop we will focus on a "bystander" model that empowers each participant to take an active role in promoting a positive community. It is critical not only to take action, but to encourage others to do the same, to engage with people, not as potential perpetrators or victims, but as empowered bystanders who can confront abusive / violent peers and ultimately help transform our communities and culture. Through interactive activities, presentation, and discussion, participants will explore various ways to challenge problematic situations as responsible, active, and engaged community members and leaders.
