Athletes Programs | Campus Outreach Services

Playing to win on the field means training to win off the field. Engage student athletes on consent and sexual misconduct, train coaches in comprehensive response to allegations of sexual misconduct and strengthen upstander skills with team building exercises. Driven by efficacy data, our programs statistically improve knowledge, attitude, behavior, and bystander empowerment around sexual misconduct from pre-test to post-test.

“I just wanted to drop you a brief note to again thank you for the marvelous presentation that you did for our student-athletes. As I indicated that night, in 13 years of doing educational programming for our teams, I have never seen such devoted attention and respect as they gave you. What you had to say to our kids and the way you said it was precisely what I was hoping our athletes would hear.”
