All of our small choices will add up to ultimately change things so that less people are hurt by interpersonal violence.
Reactive
When you see something that concerns you around the issue of interpersonal violence, you can take the direct approach, confront or check in; you an delegate, ask a friend, supervisor, or professional to get involved; or distract when you see a situation that you just want to diffuse. Choose an option that works best for you, that works with your barriers. It's not important what you do, just that you do something
Proactive
Our goal is to strengthen our community values and norms so that a new Airman who came to our organization knows that interpersonal violence is not okay and everyone is expected to do their part. Posters, fridge magnets, bumper sticks can communicate, without saying a word, your commitment to prevention. You can incorporate bystander messages and articles on social media. You can show your support of prevention efforts in your everyday conversations and talk to your friends and family about the importance of this issue in your off time.
