Sexual Assault Awareness Month
April is a powerful month for all agencies that serve Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence populations since there is a large overlap of Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence primary with intimate partner violence that effect the personnel and professional life such as family, friends, work, extracurricular activities. This is the month that all agencies nonprofit and alike unite as one and take a stand against sexual assault. It should always be remembered that “No” means “No”, when an individual say “No”, it does not mean that their eyes are saying yes or that they are playing hard to get. No man, women, or child wants to be sexually assaulted!
Unite with your local Rape Crisis Center and spread the word. Use social media sites and post pictures of you strutting your jeans (Denim Days), spread the words with #denimdaysfresno or if not a social media advocate, be available if you know someone that needs resources or a shoulder to lean on.
