The Red Flag Campaign is a community-level strategy designed to build bystander intervention skills and prevent sexual assault and dating violence at Ithaca College, sponsored by The Office of Student Engagement and Multicultural Affairs (OSEMA).
The Campaign will provide prevention education opportunities and encourage campus community members to do something when we witness "red flags." TRFC highlights year-round programming that supports the work against a culture of violence and
- is designed for all campus members including the friends/peers of survivors and perpetrators of dating violence and sexual assault.
- takes a prevention approach to the issues.
- educates the campus community about the “red flags” (warning indicators) of dating violence, highlights the characteristics of healthy relationships and how individuals can avoid creating red flags in their relationships.
- encourages our campus community members to “do something” (i.e. intervene in the situation).
As a partnership with SHARE, we are gathering information on the current events, programs, and resources that are already in place and established.
