With anti-Asian-American and xenophobic harassment rising nationwide, nine Chicagoland organizations are conducting bystander intervention training on a free Zoom webinar at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 17.
Viewers will learn to intervene effectively as a bystander without compromising their safety. The webinar is sponsored by the Evanston Lighthouse Rotary Club as well as the Barrington Breakfast, North Chicago, Carol Stream, Northbrook and Lake Zurich Rotary clubs, as well as Asian Americans Advancing Justice | Chicago, CAIR Chicago and Hollaback.
The webinar will offer five strategies for intervention: distract, delegate, document, delay and direct. Practice scenarios will give viewers more confidence intervening the next time they see anti-Asian-American harassment. Skills are applicable to all ethnic and gender situations.

Hi,
I wanted to attend this webinar but am usually really busy around 7 pm. Is there a recording available? Or, would this be offered again?
