LEAD Online Seminar: Make It Happen

Haleigh Harrold is a nonprofit leader with over 10 years of experience working closely with diverse communities to shift social norms with the goal of increasing safety and preventing harm. Haleigh has partnered with middle schools, high schools, and community groups to build active bystander skills and work to create social norms around checking in to help others. While she has seen programs succeed at helping people build individual skills, it wasn’t until Haleigh started working with alcohol-serving venues that she finally saw programming successfully shift social norms to encourage people to use active bystander skills to increase safety. At that point, Haleigh became all in on partnering with the teams of alcohol-serving venues to increase safety.
