The group's outlook is feminist and intersectional, focusing on how street harassment and toxic masculinity affect women as well as LGBT people and people of color.[4][5] It supports the decriminalization of sex work through its DecrimNow campaign.[6][7] The group and its members heavily use social media in campaigns.[4][8]
In May 2016, CASS launched the Safe Bars Collective, a training program to help bar staff recognize signals that someone might feel unsafe or uncomfortable.[9] The initiative also trains transgender workers of color in Washington, D.C. alongside the Restaurant Opportunities Center.[10]
