About Men Can Stop Rape
Men Can Stop Rape (MCSR) is widely viewed as the national leader for
engaging young men in gender violence prevention. The organization has
reached hundreds of thousands of youth and trained thousands of
professionals from diverse organizations and agencies, including rape
crisis centers, Boys and Girls Clubs, state health departments, the
Department of Justice, the Violence Against Women Office, state
coalitions against sexual assault, and educational institutions. MCSR
successfully mobilizes male youth to prevent men's violence against
women, inspiring them to create their own positive definitions of

assault prevention. That same year, Gloria Steinem, Yoko Ono, and the

The State of Campus  Bystander Intervention Efforts 

Thursday, June  21st, 2007 

1:00pm to 3:00pm  Eastern Time 

Presented by:   

Brett A. Sokolow, J.D.   
David Lisak,  Ph.D. 
Victoria Banyard,  Ph.D. 

PLEASE VISIT _WWW.NCHERM.ORG_ (http://www.ncherm.org/)  IF THE
FORMATTING OF THIS EMAIL  IS DIFFICULT TO READ 

WHAT IS BYSTANDER  INTERVENTION? 
If we accept the premise offered by  researchers such as David Lisak and
Toni Abbey that a significant number of  those who perpetrate sexual
violence are repeat offenders (40-60%) of multiple  acts of violence, we
also have to accept that these individuals are likely to be  sociopaths
and/or predators.  
Prevention efforts on college campuses have historically involved
education aimed at those who might perpetrate, but these interventions
are not  appropriate for repeat sex offenders.  We need educational
efforts to reach those 40% to 60% of perpetrators who  are one-time
offenders, because they may be educable via modalities such as
empathy-induction, a better understanding of rules/laws or normative
dissonance.  What do we do with the  sex offenders?  The path to
prevention for them is Bystander Intervention.  We look to their peers
and community and  ask them to identify those whose behaviors are
high-risk.  We ask them not to be bystanders to the  acts of aggression
and trespass of the sex offenders.  We ask them to intervene.  Many
campuses have committed to programmatic efforts at empowering
bystanders, and some are starting to show  
positive results.   
This webinar examines the state of the  art in campus bystander
intervention efforts, highlighting the research on  repeat perpetration
and the model 
program underway at the University of New Hampshire.   This webinar is
divided into 
three  parts: 
1)     David Lisak,  a forensic psychologist from the University of 
Massachusetts, Boston will lay the foundation for why  bystander
intervention efforts are necessary. 
2)     Victoria  Banyard, a psychologist from the University of New
Hampshire
 will provided detailed information on the  model program being
implemented 
at UNH and how that model can be replicated at  other campuses.   
3)     Brett  Sokolow, a higher education attorney who works with
student 
groups on bystander  intervention will discuss the challenges of
motivating bystanders, the  impediments to bystander engagement,
effective techniques for 
impelling  bystanders to act, and effective means for intervention.   
THE  TOPICS 
THE NEED FOR BYSTANDER INTERVENTION   
?         Profiling  the one-time offender 
?         Profiling  the repeat offender 
?         How many  times does a repeat offender repeat? 
?         What types  of violence are typical of repeat offenders? 
?         Can we  detect the undetected rapist? 
o       Who can  identify them?  
o       How can they  be stopped? 
EMPOWERING  INTERVENTION 
?         What  students need to know: 
o       Rapists are  extremely adept at identifying ?likely? victims,
and 
testing prospective  victims? boundaries; 
o       Rapists plan  and premeditate their attacks, using sophisticated

strategies to groom their  victims for attack, and to isolate them
physically;  
?         What do  these strategies look like? 
o       Use  ?instrumental? not gratuitous violence; they exhibit strong

impulse control and  use only as much violence as is needed to terrify
and coerce their victims into  submission;  
o       Use  psychological weapons ? power, control, manipulation, and 
threats ? backed up by  physical force, and almost never resort to
weapons such as 
knives or guns;   
o       Use alcohol  deliberately to render victims more vulnerable to 
attack, or completely  unconscious.  
THE UNH MODEL FOR BYSTANDER  INTERVENTION 
?         The  community of responsibility concept 
?         Inclusive  scope 
o       Breaking down the ?men as  perpetrators women as victims?
dichotomy 
?         Two-pronged  approach: 
o       In-person educational  programs 
o       Outreach public awareness  campaign 
?         Peer-led  efforts 
?         Single-sex  groups 
?         Booster  sessions 
?         Community-specific  scenarios 
?         A  commitment to intervene 
?         Measured efficacy of model  program 
o       Persistence of  effect 
ARE YOU A BYSTANDER OR AN  INTERVENER? 
o       What kind of  bystander? 
o       What kind of  intervener? 
?         Are  interveners ratting our their friends? 
?         Do  interveners need to be preventers? 
HOW DO WE EMPOWER  BYSTANDERS? 
o       What motivates them to  act? 
o       What inhibits them from  acting? 
?         Fear of  reprisal 
?         Fear that they are misjudging  the situation 
?         Fear of  entanglement 
?         Fear of  self-endangerment 
?         Fear that it will be not  effective 
?         Fear that they do not have  allies 
?         Fear of being politically  correct 
?         Failing to recognize the  common roots of all ??isms? 
?         Lack of personal interest or  connection to the behavior 
?         Failure to identify the  behavior as problematic 
o       Seeing it as  normative 
o       Social norms implications for  bystander intervention 
o       How  can we help bystanders to overcome inhibitions 
o       How  do you benefit from intervening? 
o       How  does your community benefit from intervention? 
o       Intervention is an act of  leadership, loyalty and relational
living 
o       Intervention as an act of  resistance to peer pressure 
o       Can  we use inspiration and role-modeling to catalyze a culture
of  
intervention? 
THE WIDER IMPLICATIONS AND  APPLICATIONS OF INTERVENTION MODELS 
o       Not  just sexual violence 
o       Alcohol and other  Drugs 
o       Intolerance, hate acts and  bias 
o       Other implications for future  directions? 
HOW A WEBINAR  WORKS
Webinars are cost-effective  because everything you need is already in
your office -- a telephone and a  computer.  Webinars are large-group
conference calls where you can follow along online with our PowerPoint.
You can even project the PowerPoint via  an LCD projector for group
participation by your staff. 
 Each registrant can call in from one  telephone line on campus, so you
might arrange to use a phone in a conference  room, where your staff and
administrators can listen and participate via  speakerphone.  You can
also purchase additional lines for multiple campus call-in locations for
a moderate  surcharge. 
 You will receive a  call-in 800 number and a PIN for the day of the
event.  
Once you join the call, you will be able  to hear the presenters and ask
questions via phone, while viewing the Power  Point online.
