Men Rally For Change is a collaboration of men, women and youth speaking out
against sexual and domestic violence, while speaking up for safe communities
and healthy relationships. Under the umbrella of SafePlace's Expect Respect
program, Men Rally For Change engages school and community partners in an
annual rally featuring lively speakers and outstanding performers and works
throughout the year to strengthen men's involvement in ending violence
against women.
Men Rally For Change is a product of the community, and the Expect Respect
program at SafePlace. The Expect Respect program engages youth and adults
in building healthy relationships and preventing dating abuse and sexual
violence. The Expect Respect team provides support groups in local schools,
youth leadership training, and educational programs, and partners with
school and community organizations to prevent dating abuse before it
starts.
Men Rally For Change.
Know it.
Feel it.
Breathe it.
Be it.
It's time to craft a new anthem. Men Rally For Change.
