About

Students Fight Back is a gender inclusive program that employs everything we have learned about campus safety over the past 18 years through our original Girls Fight Back program. Expanding our audience lets us complete our mission -- helping people of all gender identities and expressions stand together as a united front against violence & rape culture in all of the ways they present themselves. We focus on being active bystanders and better allies as well as representatives of enthusiastic consent and teach survivor support, verbal de-escalation skills for your everyday life, and boundary setting. We also help you hone your intuition, awareness, and teach you the basics of personal safety and self-defense. All of this combines to create a Title IX compliant program that is audience-interactive, fun, and engaging. SFB is customized to include campus resources to seamlessly fit into your overall safety plans and is presented by one of our three speakers who are trained in self-defense, personal safety, and victim advocacy.

The program is 90 minutes + Q&A and includes these key components:
  • Using your intuition
  • Situational awareness
  • How to be an active bystander and a good ally
  • The definition of consent
  • How to support a survivor
  • How to set boundaries that work for you
  • Verbal de-escalation skills
  • The basics of self-defense in our Badass Basics
  • Plus a review of improvised weapons, ground fighting, and how to sign up for a full-contact adrenaline based self-defense course near you!

Boundaries for Personal Empowerment
Have you ever participated in unwanted conversations, hugging, kissing, or even . . . relationships? Want to know how to handle the awkward without hurting someone’s feelings? We can all experience social anxiety around setting personal boundaries that work for us, but doing so is essential to living a healthy, happy and empowered life. The tools we will learn can be used every day and the practice of them can ultimately lead to making healthier choices in our work relationships, romantic and friendly interactions, and our day to day social exchanges. It can even help you avoid buying those shoes you really couldn’t afford but felt pressured to charge by a pushy salesperson. Join us for an interactive presentation designed to fine tune your intuition and take full control of your choices. This program is an interactive workshop ideal for groups from 10 to 80 people and a perfect add-on to Girls Fight Back, Students Fight Back, or Fight Back on Spring Break.

Your work reminds me of this important truth: Everyone might be a target at times, but not everyone must be a victim. I'm honored to be part of what you do.
