SVNB: Bystander Intervention training

Harriet Irving Library, Innovation Hub, Room 316

 

Sexual Violence New Brunswick works in partnership with post-secondary institutions in New Brunswick to improve sexual violence awareness within the campus community. This September, we are offering our Seeds of Change; Bystander Skills that Transform Cultures of Sexual Violence in-person and it will be open to all students of UNB, STU, and NBCC.

Bystander Intervention training has been proven to be a successful tool in helping to raise awareness about sexual violence on campus and encourage individuals to feel confident intervening when possible. While most prevention programming is aimed toward individuals learning how to protect themselves from violence, these workshops veer away from victim blaming attitudes and seek to empower communities to make change in their own lives, perpetuating a culture of violence-intolerance.

We will be hosting this in-person workshop on September 14th at 1:30pm, at the Harriet Irving Library Innovation Hub, Room 316.
