Event Description






We have all likely been a bystander, seeing a situation where someone is acting inappropriately with another person, and we didn't know what to do or how to help make a difference. In this session you will be transported to the "bystander zone" and learn how to safely intervene as a bystander to help defuse a situation and still provide a level of service beyond any other.

Learning Objectives:
  • List the 5 decision-making steps and the 5 Ds of intervention
  • Apply the ways to take action in order to intervene in a situation
  • Implement the practice of intervention to impact the social environment around you
