Safety and Consent Skate Survey: Building Safe(r) Skate Communities
How safe are our skate communities? By filling out this anonymous survey, you are helping to build a global understanding of our strengths and deficits. This survey will be looking at the prevalence of sexual violence and harassment, and what prevention supports already exist within our communities. So... find a cozy seat, pour yourself a comfort drink of your choosing, and spend the next 10-20 minutes helping build a safer future for all skaters.

Data from this survey will be used to inform the validity and direction of supports in the following areas
  • Supports for the survivors of sexual violence
  • Bystander intervention tools
  • Concrete recommendations for industry players in addressing safety in our communities

Survey Sections:
  • Part 1: Demographics
  • Part 2: Safety in Your Skate Community
  • Part 3: Gender- or Sexuality-based Harassment, Sexual Harassment and Sexual Assault (Trigger warning: sexual violence themes)
  • Part 4: Mental Health Supports
  • Part 5: Reflections
  • Part 6: Post-survey Self Care

NOTE:
You must be 18 or older to participate in this survey, as 18 is the age of consent in most countries.
By completing this survey, you are demonstrating consent for the information gathered to be used for the stated purposes.
You are asked not to share any names or identifying information about yourself or others. We are building a broad picture of the state of the community. Personal stories are a part of that. But this is not the space for sharing specific names. Some countries have laws that would require us to file a report, and that isn't this project.
In this context "safe" refers to safety from people, not from the concrete.
This survey may be emotionally triggering as it includes questions about sexual harassment and assault. Please move at your own place, take care of yourself, and only engage the level that you feel you are able
