Green Dot Training

I attended this training on 10/31/19.

"Green Dot is a national program we implement here at the College at Brockport; it is a bystander intervention program whose focus is preventing sexual assault, relationship violence, and stalking."

We are trying to start a culture change here on campus; that process will take time.  Started with the President's cabinet and now faculty/staff.  Upper classmen will be trained in the spring semester.  

Similar to "Eagle Checkin" where you check in with folks to see how they are doing.

Three D's:
Direct
Delegate 
Distract

There are both proactive and reactive green dots.  We are trying to diffuse any of the red dots that appear on campus.

Things for Faculty/Staff to do now:
Hang up posters in their offices/areas
Put a statement in their syllabi
Develop course assignments related to greendot topics
Use the language in conversations with students
Educate and read articles on the topic
