Bystander Trainings

Sexual harassment and sexual violence are a national problem on college campuses. At UM, we work together to make our campus a safe place. That's why we offer Bystander Intervention Training. In this training, students learn important strategies and techniques that can help stop this kind of violence before it happens. 

This training session contains triggers related to sexual assault and relationship violence. Please contact SARC if you are a survivor and need support.  We can assist with removing the administrative hold so you will not have to take the training. If you need support please call 243-4429

***Offerings are limited. Please keep checking this page for opportunities to attend future Bystander Trainings.***
