Sometimes, we may want to respond directly to harassment by naming the inappropriate behavior confronting the person doing harm.

Use this one with caution, because Direct intervention can be risky – the person harassing may redirect their abuse towards the intervening bystander, or may escalate the situation in another way. The first key to Direct intervention is to assess the situation before you decide to respond, by asking yourself the following questions:

1. Are you physically safe? 

2. Is the person being harassed physically safe? 

3. Does it seem unlikely that the situation will escalate? 

4. Can you tell if the person being harassed wants someone to speak up?

If you can answer yes to all of these questions, you might choose a direct response. 

The second key to Direct intervention is to keep it short and succinct. As tempting as it may be, avoid engaging in dialogue, debate, or an argument – since this is how situations can escalate. If the person harassing responds to your Direct intervention, focus your attention on assisting the person who was harmed, instead of engaging with the person doing the harm.

If you choose to intervene directly, here are some examples of what you can say:

– “That’s inappropriate,” “That’s homophobic,” “That’s disrespectful,” “That’s racist,” “That’s not okay,” “That’s harassment,” etc.

– “Leave them alone.” 

– “Please stop right now.”

– “They’ve asked you to leave them alone and I’m here to support them.”

A note about safety: We don’t ever want you to get hurt while trying to help someone out. Always prioritize safety, and consider possibilities that are unlikely to put you or anyone else in harm’s way.

The five-step system describes our internal thought patterns when deciding whether or not to intervene.

1. Notice what is happening around you. Evaluate the situation and assess what appears to be happening. This isn't only about recognizing a potential sexual assault, it's also about identifying street harassment and other inappropriate behaviors.
   
2. Consider whether the situation calls for action. Intervening can be difficult to perform if the bystander is not sure of whether or not to act. That's why all bystanders should carefully figure out what appears to be the situation. If it is hard to figure out what is happening, try asking other bystanders what they think is happening. This can also be useful if the bystander themselves are not sure if help should be given from someone more qualified.
   
3. "Am I responsible?" It can be hard to figure out if you are responsible for another person. As a bystander, watching a situation unfold between two strangers might not make the bystander feel responsible for helping them. Instead, a bystander might simply watch or ignore the strangers. Deciding responsibility means taking action, such as directly intervening or finding someone who can. As a bystander, it is up to you to decide who is responsible, whether that person is yourself or someone else. 
   
4. Choose an action that you think is best. You have the power to intervene, but you also have the power to contact someone who might be better equipped to handle the situation. Choosing to act can be done in a variety of ways, such as by distraction, and can be done solo or with assistance from others.
   
5. Can you do it safely? Safety is the most important step in any intervention action. Safety of the victim and the bystander should be considered at all times and intervention should not be performed if you feel that someone's safety could be threatened. In the event that safety is compromised one should utilize other resources, such as campus police or residential advisers. Remember, we intervene to help end a situation, not to escalate it further.
