A community and research team supporting victim-survivors of sexual assault and violence. 💙💚 Our mission is to empower, educate, and advocate for others.
If Roe v. Wade is overturned, it will be an extreme step backward and a direct assault on the fundamental right to self-determination.
It represents a threat not just to women but to all Americans.
Roe v. Wade has been the law of the land for nearly my entire lifetime. I’m fighting for my daughters — and for every generation after them — to have the same rights I’ve had.

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨 Today, @POTUS is signing an executive order calling on @SecCardona to review DeVos' anti-survivor Title IX rule.
This is important step to show his administration will prioritize Title IX and student survivors' rights.

I got into medical school!!! I am going to be a doctor, which means I can work to make medicine more accessible and trauma focused especially for LGBT+ and victim-survivors of sexual assault. MY DREAMS ARE COMING TRUE 👩⚕️🎉

If you ever feel like you are ready to use both victim and survivor as your title, I happily present you with this term. As a victim-survivor, I get to acknowledge my growth while never forgetting the sexual assault that continue to happen to others.

Hello @CoriBush, my name is Laura Knittig. I am the Founder and Chief Executive Director of @researchbysave. I too have never felt like a full survivor, which is why we created victim-survivor as an all encompassing term for those affected affected sexual assault.
ICYMI: The Department of Education has been using blogs to "clarify" portions of the new rule. Here's the thing, those clarifications have significantly altered the meaning of portions of the rule.
In short, Betsy DeVos is governing via blog posts...
