Only yes means yes
Workshop summary
Important: This workshop is currently being redeveloped with guidance from community advisors. We expect to make the workshop available for public booking in spring 2026.
This workshop explores the gap between colonial legal and ethical standards of consent and supports participants to create a culture of consent that goes far beyond the requirements of colonial law.
Although the criminal legal system is flawed, knowing how it works can be helpful for making informed decisions. This workshop looks at legal and non-legal options available to adult survivors of sexual assault.
We are grateful to the community advisors who helped West Coast LEAF create the original version of Only Yes Means Yes and to those who are currently helping us redevelop our curriculum.
