Join the Office of Domestic Violence Strategies, the Mayor’s Office for the Engagement of Women, and community partners in recognizing April as Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM). During SAAM, we lift up awareness and prevention of sexual violence, harassment, and abuse. The roots of SAAM began during the civil rights movement, and ending sexual violence is deeply related to ending other forms of oppression.

Addressing and preventing sexual violence needs people like you. Read the blog below to learn about local resources and events where you can get involved during SAAM and beyond!
