Setpoint: How to be an Active Bystander

April 16, 2021 - 12:00pm to 1:00pm

 

In this session, we’ll discuss and practice ways that the key components of Empowerment Self Defense can be used to safely intervene in and de-escalate challenging situations where we may be a bystander. We’ll consider how the Bystander Effect impacts intervention and discuss barriers to intervening. Participants will discuss and practice some key intervention techniques, including distracting, deflecting, and delegating.
