In our first four classes we focused on prevention, both establishing, & maintaining, safety & consent. Classes 5 & 6 are focusing on what we do after a consent collision, rupture, or violation.

Depending on the nature of the problem we need a repertoire of responses that are proportional to different types of offenses.

We will be exploring pathways to change and ways of being accountable. We will have more discussion and practice of self-care, safety, and communication tools for hearing someone’s truth.

What is accountability for survivors? First is honesty. Pretending everything’s okay when it isn’t leaves your partner to think you like something that in fact you do not. Only with honesty can we create constructive paths into the future. We are not doing anyone any favors when we remain silent.

Speaking our truth, even in the most painful and awkward situations, can be the healthiest practice. It supports our own strength and our self-worth, while opening an opportunity for a transgressor to mend the violation, if that is what you want. Also, speaking truth about violations promotes safety and consent in our communities.
