Interrupting Harm Workshop (online with Google Meet)
Interrupting Harm asks participants to think about the everyday actions that they can take to interrupt when they witness harm. The workshop will take participants through the process of owning the responsibility of doing something, noticing opportunities to interrupt harm, and then choosing an interruption that fits their needs and the needs of the people receiving the interruption. Through the use of scenarios, self-reflection and creative problem-solving, participants will come away from this workshop feeling empowered with new skills in their toolbox to interrupt harm.
