The mission is to empower peer-led movements of proactive bystander intervention. The Center is dedicated to the study of college student bystander behavior and expanding the application of bystander intervention theory and research to prevent harm and lives lost in situations where bystander intervention could have been a mitigating factor. Specific focus areas of prevention and harm reduction include: (1) sexual assault, sexual harassment, and intimate partner violence, (2) bias, exclusion, and discrimination (3) hazing, (4) unhealthy alcohol and other drug misuse, and (5) mental health concerns. WITH US is led by a team of expert social psychology and public health faculty researchers, multidisciplinary prevention practitioners, and experienced higher education administrators.

barriers to helping. * Resources: committed to developing and curating evidence-based resources to support students and educators in their campus prevention and health promotion efforts. * Outreach:
