Active Bystander training is a short, interactive opportunity to think about what you would do if you witness someone doing harm to another.
Active Bystander training helps participants recognize when they are bystanders, analyze the situation and their options, and evaluate the consequences of their actions. It increases bystanders’ effectiveness by teaching how we each can interrupt harm doing and generate positive actions by others. Instead of becoming complicit through remaining passive, participants learn the competencies they need to decide to take action when they witness something they feel is troubling, unfair, or wrong. Active bystandership does not mean aggression against the harm doer, it means taking responsible action to help people in need.
