Navigating college hook-ups, sex, dating, and relationships can be hard. Specially trained members of Break the Silence peer educators create a safe space where new students can come to ask ANY and ALL questions they have about sex and relationships at Lehigh. Common questions include sexual pleasure, STIs, birth control, Lehigh culture, and consent.

This program breaks down the myths and states the facts regarding sexual violence. Students will learn about intoxicating substances such as alcohol and date-rape drugs as well as their effects. Risk-reduction strategies, boundaries, and bystander intervention will also be discussed as students engage in a conversation based on consent, alcohol, and communication.
In this interactive simulation, participants will adapt to an identity role and navigate through life circumstances and challenges that survivors of dating and intimate partner violence often face. This particular adaptation is specifically geared towards college-age and young adult participants, who may need to address concerns of coming out about their sexual orientation and/or gender identity to family and friends, deciphering how to navigate shared workspaces or housing, or staying safe from a former intimate partner who is showing signs of abuse. Format: education, activity, and reflection.
