Culture of Consent
Most people understand consent within a sexual context, however, it can and should be translated into everyday life. It is important to ask and not assume, continue with your intention only when a yes is clearly heard – not silence or a no. It is important to respect not disregard. At Douglas College we want students and employees to feel safe, respected, happy, and healthy.
How do we do that...to start we should always ASK. LISTEN. RESPECT.
