As domestic and sexual violence advocates, we understand the devastating impact of sexual violence on individuals and communities. Sexual violence is a pervasive and complex issue that affects people of all genders, ages and backgrounds. It is a violation of human rights, and its effects can last a lifetime.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM). It is an important opportunity to raise awareness about this issue and promote change through prevention, education and support for survivors and their loved ones. We believe that awareness is the first step toward ending sexual violence, and we are committed to supporting survivors and promoting change in our communities.

Join us as we support survivors and #ShatterTheSilence during Sexual Assault Awareness Month. We believe that by breaking the silence around sexual violence, we can create a culture that supports survivors, holds perpetrators accountable and promotes healing. #ShatterTheSilence is a reminder that every voice matters and that together, we can create a world where sexual violence is no longer tolerated.

If you or someone you know is being impacted by sexual violence, call our 24-hour helpline at (602)244-0089 or visit our website.
