Learn how to recognize workplace abuse, support peers, and help build a future where work doesn’t harm people.

Millions of workers — especially young employees in their first jobs — experience bullying, retaliation, and toxic leadership at work — often without realizing there’s a name for it or that change is possible.

The End Workplace Abuse Student Network brings together students who want to understand workplace power dynamics, support peers, and help create healthier workplaces.

Whether you're studying social work, business, law, psychology, public policy, or simply care about fairness at work, this network gives you the tools and community to make a difference.

By joining the network, you’ll gain knowledge, community, and opportunities to take action.

As a member of the network, you’ll receive:

Monthly student calls
Participate in monthly virtual gatherings that include workplace abuse education, organizing trainings, campaign updates, and student story-sharing.

A campus action toolkit
Access resources for hosting discussions, running awareness campaigns, and organizing campus events about workplace abuse and worker protections.

Invitation to an annual student summit
