#WEARESAATH#sexualassaultawarenessmonth
TW: sexual assault, rape, domestic violence
April is National Sexual Assault Awareness Month and we wanted to share some statistics on sexual assault in the global South Asian community.
To all survivors:
We believe you. It's NOT your fault. “No” means no;
silence also means no. Whether you choose to share your story or not, your experiences are valid and you do not deserve what happened to you.

We asked members of our team to tell us one thing that the pandemic has taught them, and here’s what Ravina had to say!
"The pandemic has taught me more about patience, grace, and rest needing to be present in everyone’s daily lives.
In addition to recruiting for our national team, our area and college networks are also looking for more members!
