Disrupting the cycle of bystanding
In 87% of cases of harm, there are bystanders present. While some people may feel comfortable initiating conversations about harm with others, many don’t.
Stymie allows bystanders to remain anonymous, giving them the courage to overcome the fears and social pressures that prevent them from speaking up. It also relieves feelings of helplessness for those who want to help their peers but don’t quite know how.
