Women’s Safety Committee and Change the Status Quo

Hollaback! SLO is presenting at the Winter 2012 meeting of the Women’s Safety Committee at Cal Poly today (Jan 31, 2012)! We are very excited about this opportunity, and hope that we can develop a partnership with this organization.

Earlier this quarter, we ran our first workshop as part of the Gender Equity Center’s “Week of Wellness” at Cal Poly (Jan 10, 2012). It was attended by  15-16 students and staff members.

On Sat Feb 11, we are running a workshop at the 10th annual Change the Status Quo conference at Cal Poly. Change the Status Quo is designed to educate and network activists on multiple issues, bringing together people who share a passion for making a difference in their community and the world. The conference encourages participants to challenge stereotypes, demand solutions, and use education to make lasting changes. The theme—Educate, Motivate and then Activate—aims to give participants tangible tools to be effective advocates for social change.

We are thrilled that our CSQ workshop proposal was accepted! Learn more about the Change the Status Quote conference and register here: http://studentlife.calpoly.edu/communitycenter/quo/index.asp
