Safety & Behavior

Reporting Safety Concerns

The Aspire Leaders Program is a safe space for amazing people with diverse backgrounds from all around the world to gather, learn, & grow together. Any sort of abusive behavior is grounds for warning, suspension, or even immediate removal from the program. 

• If you ever experience or witness any abusive behavior, please report it immediately by submitting the Safety Form.

• If this behavior has occurred within your Group and you do not feel comfortable remaining there, please remove yourself from it. Instructions on how to do this can be found by asking the Chatbot.

Good Behavior Expectations

As a part of your enrollment, you agreed to abide by Aspire's Good Behavior Expectations. Please do not hesitate to review these expectations if you have any questions. 

Guidance for Community Discussions

ALP requires you to engage in frequent discussions with your peers. Some recommendations on how to approach these conversations are below.

1. Be fully present.

2. Listen to others actively and with care.

3. Be self-responsible and self-challenging. Do not be afraid to ask questions.

4. Respect others’ opinions; respond with courtesy and moderation, especially when disagreeing with them.

5. Speak from your own experience instead of generalizing (use “I” instead of “they”, “we” instead of “you”).

6. Monitor your participation. If you are someone who normally talks a lot, then try to work on listening; if you are someone who normally stays quiet, then try to work on speaking up.
