“The Red Flag Campaign is the perfect tool to spread the important message of what constitutes healthy and unhealthy relationship behaviors.”
— Women's Center Assistant Director (public university)

The Red Flag Campaign is a community-level strategy designed to build bystander intervention skills and change social norms on campus.

To implement the campaign, a campus purchases a campaign package. 

The campaign package Includes:

POSTERS: The "face" of the campaign. 20 copies each of eight double-sided POSTERS (choose between SERIES A or SERIES B or *brand new posters* SERIES C or SERIES D) that illustrate elements of dating violence and how friends can intervene. The back of each poster explains in greater depth the hallmarks of healthy relationships.

CAMPUS PLANNING GUIDE:  The "heart" of the campaign. A comprehensive ORGANIZING GUIDE with step-by-step directions to launch the campaign, including how to use the campaign to enhance current campus programming, how to build new campus events around it, and how to sustain community-level change.
