STAND TOGETHER Against Domestic Violence
 
The San Luis Obispo County Beat the Punch Campaign is a prevention campaign designed to provide information, education, and alternative actions to help prevent domestic violence in our community. By informing and helping our local men in identifying and preventing high-risk behavior and abuse, we will move closer to a society where intimate partners treat each other with dignity, respect and compassion.

Violence is about power and oppression. Gender-based violence is about maintaining the privilege men have over women and straight men have over gay men. Many other forms of privilege and inequality are related to this gender-based inequality; white people over people of color, adults over youth, native-born people over immigrants, for example. Challenging gender-based violence is an important way for men to challenge oppression as a whole, including the oppression they suffer.
