In study after study, students and employees report that they regularly experience incivility, sexual harassment, assault and discrimination in schools and workplaces. Soteria Solutions was founded by Sharyn Potter and Jane Stapleton, who previously founded the University of New Hampshire's Prevention Innovations Research Center. Sharyn and Jane have dedicated their careers to researching and developing the most effective strategies to both respond to and prevent sexual and interpersonal violence and harassment. A 501(c)(3) organization, Soteria Solutions has successfully implemented solutions at some of America’s largest corporations, federal agencies and hundreds of colleges and high schools.
Make work a place where harassment is recognized, prevented and never tolerated.
Campuses should be places of learning, not fear and violation.
Bullying and assault are learned. So are respect and bystander engagement.
A recent study titled “Bystander Interventions Against Gender-Based Violence and Harassment in the Workplace” by Kristan Stampe Nielsen, Maj Hansen, and Eva Gemzøe Mikkelsen provides valuable insights into the challenges and effectiveness of bystander intervention programs aimed at addressing gender-based violence (GBV) and harassment in workplace settings.
For decades, bystander intervention has been a growing and effective tool in violence prevention, empowering individuals to recognize, respond to, and prevent harmful behaviors in real time. While bystander intervention has been a transformative strategy, Soteria Solutions recognizes the need for multiple approaches. An essential and complementary method to bystander intervention is Strategic Resistance.
