ABOUT IT'S ON US
Founded in 2014 as an initiative of the Obama-Biden White House, It's On Us is building a movement to combat campus sexual assault by engaging all students, including young men, and activating the largest student organizing program of its kind in prevention education programs. With more than 300+ college campus chapters, our work is grounded in a peer-to-peer sexual assault prevention education model that empowers students to teach one another sexual assault awareness and consent education, bystander intervention, and survivor support.
It's On Us envisions a world where all college students are equipped to recognize that nonconsensual sexual activity is sexual assault, to identify situations in which sexual assault may occur, to intervene in situations where consent has not or cannot be given, and to create an environment in which sexual assault is unacceptable and survivors are supported.
It's On Us is the only program of its kind to combine grassroots organizing with high-impact culture change campaigns through partnerships with media outlets, creative agencies, and influencers such as MTV, Comedy Central, Cosmopolitan, and Esquire. Through these partnerships, we reach millions of young people with critical prevention and associated messaging.
