When incidents of sexual harassment or sexual assault occur within communities, as we've recently seen in InfoSec, how can a community respond in ways that support survivors and also hold problematic members accountable? How does a community move forward together stronger after these incidents? How do I support a friend who has been assaulted or harassed? How do I respond when a friend is accused?
