BYSTANDER INTERVENTION
Research centering on prevention efforts of sexual violence have shown that bystanders are an intricate part
of prevention. Often outnumbering both the perpetrators and the victims, everyone plays a role in stopping
sexual violence before it happens. Be an active bystander, someone who is committed to making a choice to
become involved and stop sexual violence. Before acting though, understand that active bystander intervention
does not encourage or mean to put one’s self in danger. Safe options for being an active bystander include:
• Watch out for behaviors that appear
inappropriate, forcible, or harassing to
possible victims.
• Making up an excuse that allows
potential victims to get out of potentially
dangerous situations.
• Speaking with him/her and check to confirm
he/she is safe and okay.
• Never leaving the side of him/her, despite the
efforts of someone to get him/her alone or
away from others.
• Stepping in to stop an individual’s overuse
of alcohol.
• Reporting any suspicious activity to Campus
Safety or law enforcement.
