  • Beyond Yes & No: Creating A Culture of Consent 
    How would we feel living in a world where all boundaries are honored? Where we could feel safe and affirmed? This workshop will explore how we can move past a transactional or "Yes / No" framework of consent and how we can begin to work toward a culture of consent.
  • Creating Safer Spaces for Survivors of Sexual Assault
    Effective and informed responses to disclosures of sexual assault are built on a solid foundation of research and experiential expertise.  Discussions and content will focus on the dynamics of sexual trauma and how best to incorporate trauma-sensitive principles into practice
