About the event
A core principle behind all Hands Off! events is a commitment to nonviolent action, and all participants are expected to seek to de-escalate potential confrontation with those who may disagree with our values.
Wherever you are and whatever your level of concern, this training is a great opportunity to learn best practices to consider for your event to help ensure it's as safe and welcoming as possible for all attendees.
By the end of the session, you will understand how to recognize escalating behavior, respond calmly, and diffuse potential conflicts—whether with opposition groups, bystanders, or law enforcement—while staying aligned with your event goals.
