SAFER Teach-in

When: Wednesday, August 13th, 2-4:30pm
Where: SAFER, 25 Washington St., 4th floor, Brooklyn, NY 11201

What does your school do if someone is sexually assaulted on campus? Does it alert the community? What happens to the survivor?
What if the perpetrator is another student?
Does the school treat white survivors differently than survivors of color? What if the survivor is not a student?

Most students don't know the answers to these essential questions. Colleges rarely admit that sexual assault is a problem on their campus, and this silence leaves students confused and uninformed about campus responses to violence.

The SAFER Teach-In will give you the information you need to begin improving your sexual assault policy. Participants learn to analyze a sexual assault policy with an experienced SAFER Trainer, and set goals for making improvements. The Teach-In is a first step toward creating an effective, meaningful response to sexual assault on your campus.

To register, just give us a call at 347-293-0953, or email us your name, the school you attend, and how we can reach you.

Open to all college students! Especially useful for college interns in NYC for the summer.
