Colleges and universities play a vital role in fostering informed, respectful, and healthy communities. Our presentation provides tools and evidence to help students critically examine how porn shapes sexual attitudes and campus culture.

We were honored to return to Benedictine University for the fourth time in the fall of 2024! Every visit reminds us how ready college students are to explore pornography’s broader influence and to consider what healthy connection can look like in today’s culture.

Our college presentation addresses key areas backed by decades of academic research:

How porn impacts the brain, relationships, & society
How porn is connected to sexual dysfunction
How porn fuels sexual violence
Pornography & image-based sexual abuse
OnlyFans and “ethical porn”
How porn’s lack of consent has real-world impacts
Resources for those struggling or affected by porn
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
“

The content that Fight the New Drug presents is spot on! It is all presented in a way that doesn’t promote shame, but rather teaches how watching can lead to addictive decisions and it has a harmful influence on people’s brains, relationships, mental health, and motivations.

FTND’s presentations are engaging and compelling. They provide research-based information in a format and manner that effectively reaches youth. I salute their team and support their efforts to arm those most at risk with vital information about porn.
