This month CARE launched our new poster campaign, Don’t Stand By, ANTervene! Bystander Intervention for Anteaters. ANTervening is about Assessing the situation, Navigating your options, and Taking action.

Find our ANTervene posters around campus and learn about different ANTervention techniques. Scan each QR code for up to 4 chances to win prizes! Enter to win between 9/21/26 - 10/31/26.

Our first ANTervention Technique is Direct.

Speaking up plainly and clearly sends a strong message that harmful behavior will not be tolerated. Address the situation head-on by connecting with the person being harmed:

"Are you okay?"
"Did that joke bother you?"
"Do you know them?"

If it feels safe to do so, you can also address the person causing harm:

"I don't find jokes like that funny."
"He already told you no, you need to listen."
"Hey, they are in no state to agree or consent."

Remember, your safety matters. Trust your instincts and only intervene in ways that feel safe for you and everyone involved.

We hear your anger. We share your heartbreak. We stand with survivors.

The reports surrounding the Cornell 7 case and the silence of more than 50 members in a group chat are a painful reminder of why bystander intervention matters. When many people witness harm or know it is happening, it can be easy to assume someone else will speak up or get help. But when everyone waits for someone else, the person who needs help is left without it.

Each of us can be the person who acts.

We all have a role to play in reducing harm and building a culture where looking out for one another and taking action are the norm. You don’t need the perfect words, and you don’t have to act alone.

Our bystander intervention toolkit offers practical ways to respond in situations where harm may be occurring. Whether you’re a student, staff member, or faculty member, you can interrupt harmful behavior, ask for help, and check in with someone who needs support.

Swipe through to learn how you can safely intervene. Share with a friend or colleague, and remember: we’re here to support you.

💜 October is Dating & Domestic Violence Awareness Month. 💜

Dating and domestic violence affect countless individuals, including members of our own UCI community.

DVAM has its roots in the first National Day of Unity held in October 1981 by the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. Since then, October has stood as a powerful reminder that awareness, education, and action can save lives.

This month, we invite YOU to join us at our awareness events to learn more about dating and domestic violence and the resources available to those who need them.

Checkout the event details throughout the month!

Content Warning: Sexual Violence, Power-Based Harm

Recent news coverage related to a survivor's experience at Cornell University may feel heavy or distressing. If this coverage is impacting you, your reactions are valid and a normal response to what you may be seeing or hearing.

CARE provides free, confidential support to UC Irvine students, staff, and faculty impacted by sexual assault, dating or domestic violence, family violence, stalking, and other forms of power-based violence. You deserve care that honors your experience, your boundaries, and your pace.
