Mavs Stand Up! Recognize, Choose, Act

 

 

 

 

Mavs Stand Up empowers individuals to take safe, effective action when they witness harmful behavior—whether it's bullying, harassment, discrimination, or violence. We are partnering with GreenDot to provide a thorough, research-based, and impactful training to students, faculty and staff in the UTA community. Through interactive workshops, real-life scenarios, and practical intervention tools, this initiative builds the confidence and skills needed to intervene, support those affected, and create a culture of respect and accountability. Together, we can shift from silence to solidarity—and make our communities safer for everyone.

 

GreenDot, a program by Alteristic, is an organization that uses a combination of workshops, social marketing campaigns, and evaluation to maximize positive impact on the culture of college campuses around interpersonal violence. UTA partners with GreenDot to ensure that training attendees receive research-based and up-to-date information about how to be a positive bystander.
