California SB 967
California SB 967, enacted in 2014, is a law aimed at addressing sexual assault on college campuses. It requires all public universities in California to adopt a "yes means yes" standard for consent, meaning that both parties must give clear and affirmative agreement for sexual activities to occur. The law also mandates schools to provide education and resources to students about sexual consent, prevention, and response to sexual assault. This legislation seeks to foster a safer environment for students and to ensure that institutions take sexual violence seriously.
