Why is Sexual Assault Awareness Month important?

Because the scope of sexual violence is wide, it affects every community. It can happen to anyone, so everyone must be informed about the realities, struggles, and resources available to survivors. Do you know someone in need of help? Contact the InterAct crisis line, available 24/7: 919.828.7740 #SAAM2026
