How to Get Involved
Attend a Green Dot Training
The Green Dot Workshop is an interactive training session that will enable you to increase your skills in observation, learn about different types of power-based personal violence, recognize situations of potential violence, and practice doing “Green Dot” moments.
Upcoming Open Training Sessions
Green Dot JU will be hosting VIRTUAL open Green Dot workshops throughout the year for students, staff, and faculty. These interactive trainings seek to empower participants to discover ways to be active bystanders and create a community that does not tolerate violence, and recognizes that we all have a role to play in ending it.
For more information about upcoming trainings, contact the Green Dot JU team at greendot@thewcj.org.
No trainings scheduled at this time.
