Did you know that April is National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month? The National Sexual Violence Resource Center shares that Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) calls attention to the fact that sexual abuse, assault, and harassment are widespread and impact every person and community. SAAM aims to raise public awareness about sexual violence and educate communities on how to prevent it. The theme of Sexual Assault Awareness Month 2025, “Together We Act, United We Change” — emphasizes the importance of communities working together to prevent sexual abuse, assault, and harassment. Education is the first step to action and empowers our communities to be part of the solution. This campaign works to shift the ways our communities understand, talk about, and respond to sexual abuse, assault, and harassment. We can challenge harmful misconceptions and foster safer communities by learning and acting together. This campaign also seeks to unite us in uplifting the voices of survivors—particularly those most vulnerable in our communities—to build a stronger movement.
