Affirmative Consent: Policy Definition Affirmative Consent means an informed, affirmative, conscious, voluntary, and mutual agreement to engage in sexual activity. It is the responsibility of each person involved in the sexual activity to ensure that Affirmative Consent has been obtained from the other participant(s) to engage in the sexual activity. Lack of protest or resistance does not mean consent nor does silence mean consent. PRESENTATION SUB-TITLE Other Information as Necessary 11/15/2017

Red Light, Green LightAnd Also, Yellow Light Imagine every sexual experience is like driving through an intersection. Green means go, so it means there is clear consent. Red means stop, there is no consent. Yellow means I am not sure, or the situation is not clear.
Red Light, Green LightAnd Also, Yellow Light Typically, when approaching intersections, we don t assume lights are green. We check to be sure. If the light is green, it s okay to go. We may choose to run yellow lights even though we know that is illegal and could get us or someone else injured. If we encounter a yellow light at an intersection, it cannot turn green. We have to SLOW DOWN and wait to proceed when safe (green light).
Activity Get in two groups and discuss the following scenarios, do you think the light is green, red or yellow? Why? PRESENTATION SUB-TITLE Other Information as Necessary 11/15/2017
