From left to right juniors America Jimenez, Lexander Piatos, Jocelyn Cook, Jayden Luna, and Daniel Lopez began filling out the boundaries worksheet that was given out. After everyone filled out their papers they were passed back to one of the speakers and were kept for a game that would be played after everyone was finished filling out their paper. “I’ve always thought that women’s rights was something that we needed to speak more about, and I was hoping to find more things out about these topics here, and I think it’s just good that a topic like boundaries is being talked about,” said Cook.

Project: HER, a new club based on women’s empowerment, held a workshop on Monday with guest speakers from the Young Women’s Christian Association. Speakers Lexi Robles, David Piller and Jennifer Baltazar spoke about topics like boundaries, consent and communication skills. One of the missions for Project: HER was to have a workshop that talked about these topics so that others can learn about it and use it to empower them. By having a guest speaker talk to the members of the club, the main goal was to teach them the importance of knowing about boundaries and consent.
