George's Heroes

George's Heroes is a new bystander intervention campaign utilizing the Revolution for Courageous Leadership, created by Mike Dilbeck, founder of the Response Ability Project - a widely known and respected bystander intervention program. The focus and goal of the campaign is to raise awareness of bystander behavior(s) and ways in which individuals can become active participants in their communities- essentially becoming "George's Heroes" in the community around them.

George’s Heroes is intended to raise general awareness of and attention to community actions while recognizing every day GW heroes who exhibit exceptional behavior. All members of the GW community will be able to share stories of those making a difference and/or situations where exceptional behavior was witnessed.

The Colonial Health Center believes that every colonial counts, and that applies to all members of the GW community. Intervening in potentially harmful social situations can be difficult, but it can be the action it takes to save someone's life.
