Start a Chapter

There is no cost to start a Chapter or Affiliate Chapter. You will receive opportunities for discounted gear, including Event Kits, Chapter T-shirts, and more, but there is no requirement to pay dues or purchase any gear.

You can apply at any time. We welcome your vision and commitment. Just follow the application steps above, starting with the Interest Form.

You’ll automatically receive a confirmation email acknowledging receipt of your form.  We’ll contact you if any additional information is needed. Then you’ll receive your Acceptance Letter and Welcome Kit within 2-5 business days.

Chapters receive our free TBTN Chapter Welcome Kit containing chants, playlists, survivor stories, fundraising ideas, sample Event itineraries, and a planning guide.

Most Affiliate Chapters have existing sexual violence prevention clubs or organizations in their school, university, and/or community. TBTN respects the history of this commitment and welcomes your energy and effort to be supported by our international Foundation. This easy step provides your organization with resources and global opportunities to support your mission with more impact while maintaining your club name and existing affiliations.

Yes, Chapters and Affiliate Chapters must be affiliated with an existing entity (such as a school, university, military base, city government, etc.). If you are not affiliated with an existing entity, contact us here to learn more about potential exemptions.
