Attention NYC Feminists!

The Women's Rights Coalition presents:

FREE violence-prevention training at Hunter College

Bringing In the Bystander: train-the-trainer workshop


Wed, March 18th, 3–8:30pm, with 30 minute FREE dinner
68th Street Campus, Thomas Hunter 309

Learn this FREE training, so you can hold the workshop yourself. 1 out of 4 women in college will be sexually assaulted at least once, but you can help change that. Bringing in the Bystander program emphasizes that everyone has a role to play in ending violence against women on campus. It uses a community of responsibility model to teach bystanders how to intervene safely & effectively in cases of violence before, during, & after incidents with strangers, acquaintances, or friends. Research shows this form of education to the most effective against intimate partner violence.
