The nationally recognized presentation, She Fears You, uses dialogue, activities, and a multi-media presentation so that both men and women are encouraged to be active in changing the rape culture on campus, a culture that encourages or condones rape to happen. The program identifies for men what they have to gain from ending campus rape - that they are no longer perceived as potential rapists but as individuals capable of entering caring and emotion-based relationships.

She Fears You utilizes provocative posters to capture the attention of men. Properly channeled, that attention serves as the turning point whereby men, provoked by their emotion, realize avenues for their energy. Strategies are offered that will allow men and women to play a part in ending rape according to their own comfort levels. Confronting t-shirts objectifying women, interrupting daily conversations describing women as sexual objects, challenging the party scene on campus which frames women as targets, and recognizing messages in the media which normalize seeing women as victims are some of the ways participants leave the session with a vivid understanding of the issues and tangible ways to make change happen.

Please consider coed workshops that target general audiences, athletes (NCAA speakers grant eligible), greeks, or residence hall staff members. Workshops outlining the theory behind the development of She Fears You are also available and encouraged for administrators on your campus.
