Petition updateDear NCAA: My Mom Is a Rape Survivor and You Can Help#SetTheExpectation Campaign for Coaches & Athletes

Hello everyone!
I wanted to update you on what Darius and I have been doing. The petition you signed is urging the NCAA to do something about violent athletes. With your support we were able to get the NCAA to convene the Committee to Combat Sexual Violence. I sit on this committee and we are currently discussing potential bylaws and legislation. However, the process is slow… very slow.
That’s why I created the #SetTheExpectation campaign. We don’t need to wait for the NCAA to create bylaws that coaches have to follow and adhere to. We can urge them to take a stand on their own and #SetTheExpectation for their players that sexual assault and physical violence are NEVER ok.
To help coaches draw the line in the sand – I’ve created a pledge for high school and college athletes. You can download the pledge at www.BrendaTracy.com and you can watch the video here in this update or on my website.
If you would like to get involved with #SetTheExpectation here are some things you can do:
• Share the pledge and video with your local area high schools and colleges and ask them to #SetTheExpectation
• Use your social media (Twitter, Facebook) to challenge high school and college coaches to sign the pledge
• Challenge your alma mater to sign the pledge
• If you are a coach or team – sign the pledge and then challenge other schools and teams to do the same.
• If you have already signed the pledge - please SHARE with us on social media!
• Follow me on Twitter @BrendaTracy24 and Darius @Hoopstar503
THANK YOU for your support!! Darius and I appreciate it very much. Please continue to sign and share this petition. The NCAA hasn’t implemented bylaws yet and we have to keep on the pressure to make that they do.
Blessings to you all,
Brenda Tracy & Darius Adams
