It’s On Us Campaign
Five things you can do to join the fight against sexual assault
> TAKE THE PLEDGE AND SPREAD THE WORD.
Take the pledge to end sexual violence on ItsOnUs.org and spread the
word to your classmates and friends.
> DON’T BE A BYSTANDER. STEP UP. SPEAK UP.
As part of the Beaver Nation family, we stand up for each other and create
a safe environment for everyone. It’s on us to look out for others and to
speak up when we see a situation that could lead to sexual assault.
> MAKE ENDING SEXUAL ASSAULT A PRIORITY. RAISE AWARENESS.
If you are a member of a student organization, add the topic of ending
sexual assault to your next meeting agenda. Engage in conversations
with your peers about what is and what is not acceptable behavior.
> VOLUNTEER AT AN IT’S ON US EVENT OR CREATE YOUR OWN EVENT.
Volunteer at one of the many It’s On Us events being planned at Oregon
State University, or work with other students to host your own event.
> BE A SUPPORTER. LISTEN WITH EMPATHY.
If someone you know has experienced sexual assault, show your support.
Never blame a survivor for what has occurred and listen with empathy.
Believing is empowering. Confidential counseling options include
OSU’s Sexual Assault Support Services (541-737-7604) and the Center
Against Rape and Domestic Violence in Corvallis (541-754-0110), which
provide 24/7 crisis response services.
