A few organizations building a culture of consent (among many):

• PAVE (Promoting Awareness, Victim Empowerment)
• Know Your IX
• A Call to Men
• Local organizations! Especially if you’re looking to donate, go local. To use Minneapolis as an example:
  • The Sexual Violence Center
  • MN Coalition Against Sexual Assault (other states also have “CASA” organizations)
  • The Aurora Center
