#Weridetogether
#WeRideTogether is a nonprofit eliminating abuse in all sports, at every level. They provide free safeguarding education, abuse prevention resources, and survivor support to athletes, coaches, organizations, and parents. One of their projects, the Out of Bounds series, consists of four short-form PSAs, each of which explores facets of the victim experience, inside and outside the world of sports, and provides insight, language, and metaphor into “what it’s like” to be a victim of sexual abuse or misconduct.
Additionally, #WeRideTogether has hosted four longer-form discussions with survivors and subject matter experts to expand the conversation on the topics and nuances in the PSAs. Supporting information and resources are also provided. Learn more at: www.weridetogether.today/
