• Green Dot is built on the premise that in order to measurably reduce the perpetration of power-based personal violence, a cultural shift is necessary
• In order to create a cultural shift, a critical mass of people will need to engage in a new behavior or set of behaviors that will make violence less sustainable within any given community
• The “new behavior” is a green dot
![Page 3: Jane Horton, MD October 7, 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681671f550346895ddba197/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• Green Dot: A single choice in one moment in time that makes the world safer.
• Green Dot: A social movement that harnesses the power of peer influence and individual bystander choices to create lasting culture change resulting in the ultimate reduction of power-based personal violence.

Key theoretical drivers of Green Dot:
• Bystander Behavior Theory• Diffusion of Innovation / Social Diffusion
Theory• Social Marketing Theory• Socio-ecological Model of peer and cultural
influence
![Page 5: Jane Horton, MD October 7, 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681671f550346895ddba197/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Diffusion of Innovation / Social Diffusion Theory– Behavior change in a population can be initiated and then
diffused if enough natural and influential opinion leaders within the population visibly adopt, endorse and support an innovative behavior (Rogers, 1983)
– Popular opinion leaders (POLs) of a given population are identified, recruited and trained
– They shift targeted attitudes and behaviors in their community and sphere of influence
– Application has been successful across settings and content areas
![Page 6: Jane Horton, MD October 7, 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681671f550346895ddba197/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Social Marketing:• Understand the consumer—involve key
stakeholders in design and implementation• Design the “product” to meet consumer needs,
desires, expectations• Market the “product” to overcome consumer
obstacles, misperceptions• Goal—product and marketing are consistent
with community mission, vision, values
![Page 7: Jane Horton, MD October 7, 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681671f550346895ddba197/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Green Dots carry influence and create change across all levels of the socio-ecological model.
• Regardless of the level, ultimately change is created when an individual takes a specific action.
• The scope of the influence – from individual to societal – is determined by the access and sphere of influence of the individual.

In order for individuals to forward prevention efforts by engaging in a new behavior, they need to:
• Believe there is an issue• Believe they are a necessary part of addressing
the issue• Know what to do• Know how to do it• Feel their contribution is manageable
![Page 12: Jane Horton, MD October 7, 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681671f550346895ddba197/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Three key tasks of Green Dot training:• Recognize red dot behaviors• Identify our “self-defining moments” when our
recognition of red dots meets our obstacles and we are tempted not to act
• Minimize, eliminate or overcome these obstacles and perform green dots
![Page 13: Jane Horton, MD October 7, 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681671f550346895ddba197/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

of the tiny pushes of each honest worker.-Helen Keller

“To go against the dominant thinking of your friends, of most of the people you see everyday, is perhaps the most difficult act of heroism you can perform.
- Theodore H. White
![Page 41: Jane Horton, MD October 7, 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681671f550346895ddba197/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
•Personal• “I’m an introvert”• “I can’t stand conflict”• “I’m shy”• “I hate calling attention to myself”
• “It’s not my concern”• “I don’t want to get involved”
![Page 42: Jane Horton, MD October 7, 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681671f550346895ddba197/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Which of these bystander obstacles might keep you from acting?
1. There are other people around who will probably act so I don’t have to.
2. Don’t want to be embarrassed3. No one else is doing anything4. The victim looks like they “had it
coming.”5. My friends would give me a hard
time if I did anything6. My personality traits make it
hard (I’m shy, hate conflict, etc.)7. It’s not my concern and I don’t
want to get involved.

You are at a party and you see a girl who is obviously intoxicated, being pulled up the stairs toward the designated room. Given your obstacles, what are you most likely to do?

2. Direct: Go up to the guy and ask him what he is doing.
3. Direct: Go up to the girl and tell her you want to talk to her in private.
4. Delegate: Tell the girl’s friend and suggest that she go get her

GO TO YOUR CORNER:You notice someone slipping a drug into someone’s drink at a bar. Given your obstacles, what are you most likely to do?
1. Direct: You confront the person who slipped the drug, “I saw you do that, and I’m going to call the cops.”
2. Direct: You tell the person whose drink was drugged.
3. Distract: You “accidently” spill the drink.
4. Delegate: You let the bartender know what you saw and ask him/her to do something
