Bystander Intervention Training for Staff and Faculty

Most of us want to help other members of our campus community but sometimes we aren’t sure how to do this. The Sexual Violence Prevention & Response Office (SVPRO) is offering Active Bystander Intervention Training for Staff and Faculty to help you address microaggressions and harassment, intervene in harmful, or potentially harmful, situations, and respond with compassion and care to a disclosure of sexual violence or other harms.
