“Finding Your Role” Workbook

No one person, group, or institution can end violence and abuse alone. Every person, group, community, or institution may have a different role in addressing violence; but it can be challenging to identify what those roles can be. This is where the Men’s Engagement Committee’s (MEC) Finding Your Role Workbook comes in. The workbook includes a series of tools to help people explore how we can each work to end violence and abuse in our communities and society. Please use these tools personally, in your work, and in your communities to help promote healthier and safer communities for all people. Explore the included facilitation strategies, and reach out to MEC for support!
