The Training Active Bystanders Program (TAB)

In these difficult times, it’s important to keep our sense of community. We advocate doing all we can to support each other – especially those who may be the target of harm-doing due to increased community fears. Quabbin Mediation currently offers trainings online and will return to in-person models when possible.
The Training Active Bystanders (TAB) program helps participants recognize when they are bystanders, analyze situations, and evaluate the consequences for everyone involved. TAB heightens bystanders’ power. It teaches how bystanders can interrupt harm-doing and generate positive actions by others. Active bystandership does not mean aggression against the harm doer. It means taking responsible action to help people in need instead of remaining passive and becoming complicit. Bystanders gain the competencies they need if they decide to take action when they witness something they feel is unfair, or wrong, or troubling. Contact us for more information.
