If you encountered an active-shooter scenario, an interpersonal conflict or someone experiencing a medical emergency, would you know how to respond? Upcoming classes can ensure that no matter the situation, you are prepared to protect yourself and assist others.

Bystander Intervention
This workshop guides participants in developing strategies to intervene in difficult situations. The focus is on incidents of stalking, sexual assault and relationship violence, but the principles and methods taught can be applied broadly.

The training will take place Thursday from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. in the Jordan Student Success Building, Room 324. Contact Mark Pokorny for more information.
