Clayton State Athletics will be committed to ensuring Title IX compliance within its athletics department. Through intentional and strategic educational programming and continuous emphasis, Clayton State student-athletes will play a major role in ending sexual violence on campus. We have what it takes to stop sexual violence and we will commit to being part of the solution. We recognize that non-consensual sex is sexual assault and will identify situations in which sexual assault may occur. We will intervene in situations where consent has not or cannot be given and we will create an environment in which sexual assault is unacceptable and survivors are supported.
Clayton State Athletics recognizes that non-consensual sex is sexual assault. We find ways to identify situations in which sexual assault may occur, intervene in situations where consent has not or cannot be given, and create an environment in which sexual assault is unacceptable and survivors are supported.
As a supporter of Clayton State Athletics, we challenge you to do your part to end sexual violence and take the "It's On Us" pledge and become part of the solution and not a bystander to the problem.
HISTORY OF IT'S ON US
The It's On Us movement is centered around ending sexual violence on campuses and in organizations nationwide. The movement has over 300,000 people taking the pledge to end sexual violence. It's On Us was founded in September 2014 as an initiative of the Obama-Biden White House. The program launched following recommendations from the White House Task Force to Prevent Sexual Assault that noted the importance of calling everyone into the conversation on sexual assault prevention.
The It's On Us Movement has four components. Each part is crucial to combat sexual violence on college campuses. The four areas are below, please take some time to read and then complete the pledge!
Recognize
The first thing this movement aims to do is to help people recognize that non-consensual sex is sexual assault. This is done by raising awareness at places all across the country at events on campuses and in communities. These events spread the word of the It's On Us campaign and call on one another to end sexual violence.
Create
Once you recognize that non-consensual sex is sexual assault, you can begin to create a culture on your campus or in your community where sexual assault is never tolerated. By creating a culture where sexual violence is unacceptable and survivors are supported, this fosters healthy discussion about ending sexual violence. This discussion leads to helping others identify situations where sexual assault may occur.
Identify
By creating a culture where sexual violence is unacceptable, this leads to a discussion on being able to help people identify situations where sexual assault may occur. This is the most crucial part of the It's On Us campaign. When people identify situations where sexual assault can occur, they are being proactive member of the community. When you identify situations that can result in sexual assault, you can then act to help someone in need of assistance.
Intervene
By identifying situations where sexual assault can occur, you can then intervene to stop sexual assault from happening. Intervening is the final part of the It's On Us movement. It is what every one of us is called to do as members of our campus and our community. By intervening, we are truly taking it on ourselves to end sexual violence.

Join the movement by taking the pledge. Commit to helping create a culture of consent, bystander intervention and survivor support.
