Our HONOR SYSTEM:

This Encampment Protest, valuing life, dignity, and community, embraces an HONOR SYSTEM.

This HONOR SYSTEM means that while we are here:

- All participants, for any length of time, are celebrated;
- We maintain a dignified atmosphere that is empowering to ourselves and each other;
- We act with the knowledge that the interest and goals of the encampment are ‘larger’ than our individual self-interests;
- We are accountable to one another and to the ‘group’;
- We use no violence, neither physical nor verbal;
- We carry no weapons;
- We request that participants refrain from using substances that compromise the encampment;
- We show respect for the land and for each other’s health and safety;
- We communicate the principles of the Honor System with people as they arrive.
- Here, we are embodying our highest self—each of us is a necessary and ‘perfect’ person.
