- Educate yourself and your peers about consent, sexuality, and healthy relationships. Encourage your friends and peers to understand their own sense of boundaries, healthy relationships, and safety. Create spaces where you and your friends/family/peers can safely address concerns about relationships, sexuality, personal safety, and consent.
- Educate yourself on interpersonal violence facts and speak up when you hear others spreading myths. Empower your friends and peers to feel that they can speak up against myths and survivor-shaming behavior.
