We advocates of the Women's Freedom Center lead educational workshops and discussions throughout Windham and southern Windsor counties, both in schools and throughout the larger community.
We speak in a variety of settings. One day, you might find an advocate leading a workshop with fourth graders on the negative impacts of gender stereotyping, and the next day you could see an advocate leading a training with rescue workers on first-responder protocol for a sexual-assault call.
We are speaking in classrooms, participating on panels, leading film discussions, and talking with law enforcement. We are at hospitals and at dentist offices. We do one-time workshops and longer forums, such as six-week series.
We speak about topics as vast as all the settings we go to: domestic violence 101, rape culture, unhealthy versus healthy relationships, bystander intervention, the social construction of gender, party culture and sexual assault on a college campus, teen dating violence, and media literacy - just to name a few.
