An easy way to learn the key parts of consent is the acronym FRIES. 🍟
Consent must be:
Freely given
Reversible
Informed
Enthusiastic
Specific
Swipe through for more information about what each part means.
Remember: consent is given when ALL of these parts are true in any given situation.
Furthermore, did you know Arkansas is one of the many states that does not define consent into the law? #CodifyConsent
