IF YOU CHOOSE TO DRINK, KEEP SAFETY IN MIND:
***Eat food before going out, preferably something hearty
***Alternate alcoholic beverages with non-alcoholic beverages: drink a bottle
of water or juice in-between alcoholic beverages
***Don't drink mystery mixes: Punch and "chasers" may contain unknown substances.
Drink from containers you open yourself or you witness being opened.
----------------------------------------
BE AN ACTIVE BYSTANDER....LOOK OUT FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR FRIENDS!
***Trust your instincts
If you see an interaction that you think is dangerous, intervene and give
the person an out
Ways to give outs: ask if the person wants to go to the bathroom, get some
water, or dance.
While an assault is never the fault of the victim, there are ways we can work
to reduce risk.
***Practice the Buddy System!
Set limits, and stick to them.
If you go out with a group of friends, keep an eye on each other.
Make up a phrase or gesture to use in case of discomfort, alarm, or emergencys,
like "Pickles!" or "Cat!"
