Dear Right To Be Friend,

 

As we conclude our Right To Be YOU campaign, allow me, as a member of our Board of Directors, to thank you. I, and we at Right To Be, have your back.

 

Thank you for your participation in this campaign, and others.

Thank you for your attendance at our trainings.

Thank you for your support, in the myriad of ways you do.

Thank you for your dedication, to us and the mission to end harassment in all its forms, and protecting all people.

 

We have - in this period of global upheaval - recognized our humanity and others' humanity. Together, we join in this moment today and each day, in celebrating ...

… our right to be safe

… our right to be free

… our right to be ourselves.

And we, at Right To Be, stand alongside you, today and each day, celebrating you and your right to be you.

 

Is there more to do? YES.

You don’t have to do it alone.

We are here for you; we are here to help you and your communities.

We do this work together, in solidarity with each other and our communities.

 

We have free online anti-harassment trainings, made possible by donations from participants like you and others. Join a training. Tell your friends and co-workers. Donate, if you can, to support us. Donations of all amounts help support us:

  • $10 maps and anonymously amplifies two stories of harassment.
  • $20 brings together a community on our anti-online harassment platform, HeartMob, to support someone who experiences online harassment.
  • $50 pays for one month of closed captioning so we can make our training accessible for those with disabilities. People with disabilities experience more harassment than those without.
  • $100 lets us train four people in bystander intervention. 

We develop trainings for workplaces, schools, and local organizations. Ask us about them.

 

We have workplace matching programs, so that you and your employer can work together, and together with us, to ensure our workplaces recognize our differences, our dignity, and our authentic selves. Contact us to learn more.

 

Thank you, for being you. We’ve got your back, today and each day. Always.

 

In solidarity and with gratitude,
