This program carefully explains the basics and principles of bystander intervention, a strategy that has proven effective in the reduction of sexual assault. Using dramatizations of sexual assault situations, viewers are taught three ways to disrupt a sexual assault: intervene directly, create a distraction, or call for help from others nearby. Real teens who have successfully intervened in attempted sexual assaults describe how they followed the principles and foiled an attempted sexual assault.
