... helping the GLBT community have safe and peaceful events

2008 Training Schedule

We train our volunteers in non-violent, non-confrontational tactics for dealing with protesters, following principles from Gandhi and M.L. King, Jr. Our training also includes important tactical information about the event venues, information about some of the specific protesters we are likely to encounter, and how Witnesses are deployed. This training is required for all who wish to participate as Silent Witnesses. Training sessions last about 2 hours.
