The Bystander: Who are you?

A crisis that I have dealt with many times is sexual assault.  I have seen this tear people up, cause anguish in families, reach the news, and really affect the mental health and well-being of people affected.

What if you had the ability to stop a sexual assault from happening?

This poses the question: Who are you?

I suggest everyone needs to watch this video, which highlights how bystanders play a very important role in stopping sexual assault.  It was made in New Zealand but definitely applied to the United States.

Warning: There is alluding imagery and may be very difficult for anyone affected by sexual assault to watch.
