Engaging Bystanders Together
“LIVE xCHANGE” April 12, 2011 2:30-3:30 pm Eastern.
Join the live real time discussion moderated by Dr. Banyard on bystander intervention. Bystander intervention serves as the central theme and approach in the National Sexual Violence Resource Center’s 2011 Sexual Assault Awareness Month Campaign: It’s Time…to Get Involved.
Continued discussion on bystander intervention will occur through the xCHANGE forum through April 15, 2011. This exchange will not be a real time discussion but the forum will be open for questions, responses and comments. Dr. Banyard will reply with daily responses.
Review our engaging bystander’s collection of materials.
