In honor of sexual assault awareness month, this workshop—sponsored by the Miami University Police Department and the MU Office of Student Wellness—is being offered at no cost to all Miami University students, faculty, staff, and the Oxford community.

Participants will gain a toolbox of immediate mental, verbal, and physical responses to risky situations, from boundary violations and harassment to physical assault. Together, we’ll learn and practice:

• Understanding the science behind our intuition

• Using our posture and voice to protect our boundaries

• Recognizing and responding to red-flag behaviors

• Escaping from grabs and holds

• Simple physical strikes anyone can use

On-campus location is Room 2084 in the Armstrong Student Center. Pre-registration is encouraged.
