As a part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the Red Flag Campaign encourages the campus community to practice Green Dot bystander intervention when they see warning signs, or "red flags," of unhealthy relationships. The red flags on display near the Education Building represent the number of reported acts of dating/domestic violence in Wood County. If we do our part to intervene and to educate, we can shift the campus culture and reduce the number of flags.The campaign will be on display from Oct. 14 - Oct. 18.To individuals with disabilities, please indicate if you need additional services, assistance, or modifications to fully participate in this event either by contacting the CWGE or Accessibility Services at access@bgsu.edu or 419-372-8495.
