Sexual Assault Awareness Month

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM). This year’s campaign focuses on ways those individuals, communities, and the private sector can help prevent sexual violence. Nearly one in five women and one in 71 men are victims of sexual assault, but all of us are impacted by sexual violence. Communities can successfully reduce the risk of sexual violence through efforts that promote respect, equality, and accountability. When individuals support change, prevention is possible.
