Exploring Accountability: In this resource, we walk through a 20 Questions activity that helps us explore accountability as a concept, our own relationship with accountability, and how this impacts violence and abuse in our communities
Masculinity + Violence Discussion Tool: This resource helps people in Oregon’s communities more constructively discuss masculinity and violence, gender inequity, and privilege and oppression (including sexism and misogyny), and how they impact all of us.
Sexual Violence & Economics: This resource helps us explore the overlaps between sexual violence and economics, our economy, and class to better understand the individual and collective impacts of sexual violence.
