Take Action

Together, we will grow safer schools and stronger futures for everyone.

Everyone wants young people to be safe and supported. And young people are already leading the change that’s needed to do just that. Through High School Too, students are working alongside adult allies to transform how sexual harassment and assault are responded to in Ontario high schools. We know a different future is possible, one where boundaries and communication are the norm, not just a lesson taught once in a health class. See how you can join us in this work!

Why we must take action

Harm should not be the price students pay to earn a high school diploma.

  • Nearly 1 in 5 students in Canada have been subjected to sexual assault or harassment in high school (CBC).

  • Only 1 out of 3 Canadians understands what consent is (Canadian Women’s Foundation).

  • 1 in 3 high school students who date in grades 9 and 10 report being subjected to dating violence (Exner-Cortens, 2021).

  • 98% of teen dating violence is not reported to the police, and 92% do not access services (Statistics Canada, 2024).  

These are not just statistics; these are students’ lives.

Together, we can challenge this reality and grow care, consent and accountability in our schools.
