Our foundational course provides a toolbox of immediate mental, verbal, and physical responses to risky situations, from boundary violations and harassment to physical assault. In this 3-hour workshop, we will practice all 5 safety principles of ESD—Think, Yell, Run, Fight, Tell—through discussion, role play, and hands-on technique practice. Join us for this fun and dynamic event!

We encourage you to wear comfortable clothing and bring a water bottle. Light snacks will be provided.

Open to all, ages 10+. Minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Due to space limitations, you must pre-register for this event. Our ESD Basics registration fee operates on a sliding scale. Choose $35, $50, or $65 based on your budget.
