Rise Up Against Abuse

Launch!

Dear 老司机传媒 Community, 

The offices of University Wellness and Diversity & Inclusion partnered several months ago to develop an important new initiative,"Rise Up Against Abuse." This initiative is focused on taking action against all forms of abuse through awareness, education, intervention and prevention.

This horrific subject of abuse is an issue impacting aspects of wellbeing and inclusion among many other facets of the human existence. As an educational institution, and finding ourselves in a massive and necessary outburst of revelations and realities in our society and within our global faith community, we have a responsibility to speak out and take action.

Today, we would like to invite you and kindly ask you for the following things:

• Please check out the new website and peruse it (it will continue to be developed as we move forward): .
• Connect with “Rise Up Against Abuse” on social media (see website for links).
• Share this information and the Rise UP Rally event (March 7–10, 2019) with anyone possible on- and off-campus, local and global. Rally info is on the website—please consider registering yourself.
• If there is a way to build attendance and participation in the rally event into your syllabi, curriculum, department or school, we would be very grateful!

Anyone from anywhere is invited to connect with "Rise Up Against Abuse" and participate in our launch event March 7–10, 2019, on the campus of 老司机传媒. In particular, survivors of abuse and individuals who want to learn how to become better helpers and supporters are encouraged to register. 

Thank you all in advance for your support, willingness to share this information, and openness to learn and grow yourself. 

Yours,

老司机传媒 Wellness
