VIDEO 2: ACTIVE BYSTANDER SKILLS

This is the second video in the series and will focus on active bystander skills.

If you haven’t watched VIDEO 1: THINGS TO NOTICE

At this point, you are already noticing when the people around you are uncomfortable and unsafe. Now we are going to talk about all of your options for checking in and helping out.

Do something direct. Say, "You need to stop" or ask "Do you need help finding your friends?"
   

Others can help. Get a coworker or manager to help or find their friends.

Talk about something else. Say, "How's everyone doing tonight?" or ask "Is there anything I can get you?"

The most important part of this conversation is that you think of things you will realistically do to help the next time you notice someone is uncomfortable or unsafe.
