You can still RSVP at It’s On Us Healthy Relationships Series

It’s On Us.org was founded in 2014 “following recommendations from the White House Task Force to Prevent Sexual Assault that noted the importance of calling everyone into the conversation on sexual assault prevention.” In 2020, the It’s On Us and Yves Saint Laurent partnered to develop the “Abuse is Not Love” awareness campaign.  Idaho State University has been selected from universities across the nation to be one of only four campuses to host an in-person* “It’s On Us” training. In fact, Idaho State will be the first in the entire western half of the U.S. to receive this training. The training is free and is open to all ISU students, faculty, and staff, as well as to the community. Attendees will be included in a raffle for giveaways!
