The Escalation workshop is an engaging and emotional film and conversation that will transform the way you view and discuss relationship abuse. Escalation is produced by the One Love Foundation, which was created in 2010 to honor the memory of Yeardley Love, then a college senior who was beaten to death by her ex-boyfriend just weeks short of graduation.
This workshop provides an opportunity to help highlight the difference between healthy and unhealthy relationship behaviors so that everyone can recognize the warning signs and stop abuse before it starts. The workshop will also include information about available resources, both on and off-campus.
The workshop lasts about 90 minutes and consists of both a movie and peer-led post movie discussion. Both showings will be held in Ferris Lounge in Seymour Union, Groups, organizations, suites, and teams are encouraged to take part in the workshop together.
This workshop will include depictions of relationship abuse including sexual, physical, and emotional abuse. Individuals who may find this content disturbing should proceed with caution.
