It’s On Us. All of us. To prevent sexual assault. To be part of the solution.
What Is Bystander Intervention?
Anyone who sees or hears about harmful behavior, or a high-risk behavior is a bystander.
Bystanders are faced with a choice:
"Do I get involved?” or “Do I mind my own business?"
Bystander Intervention is making an active choice to interrupt the harmful or high-risk behavior. It’s on us. All of us. To interrupt harm. To make St. John’s a safer place.
