My Project

Many young cis women, transgender, and non-binary youth in our school have requested workshops to help them to feel more empowered. During our health courses, students expressed concerns about self-esteem. They felt a desire to build confidence within themselves while also addressing the systemic issue of street harassment and body-shaming. Students have spoken openly about traveling to and from school feeling unsafe and wary of cat-calls and unwelcome attention from strangers.

While street harassment is an issue that we'll continue to address, we wanted to honor the students' request to invite violence prevention and self-defense facilitators to do a series of workshops specifically designed for queer youth and their allies; any and all students are welcome to participate.

Prepare Inc is an organization that offers comprehensive violence prevention training and personal safety programs that empower students to live fuller and more confident lives. Their curriculum supports the work of the anti-violence community and focuses on changing beliefs and behaviors before they lead to violence. We hope that you'll support us in bringing this important program to our students this spring.
