nonprofit serving survivors of sexual violence & igniting cultural change

Just because #saam is coming to an end, doesn't mean sexual assault stops. It happens every 68 seconds- and this is why we #startbybelieving

The reality is, women are harmed by violence every minute of every day- especially Women of Color & LGBTQIA women. We won't stop until gender-based forms of violence are nonexistent, & all lives are safe.
