Proclamation: Sexual AssaultAwareness Month The Mayor read the proclamation into the record: Sexual Assault Awareness Month calls attention to the fact that sexual family violence is wide spread and effects every person in this community. The goal of Sexual Assault Awareness Month is to raise public awareness about sexual violence and educate communities about how to prevent it. Rape, sexual assault,and sexual harassment is hard on a community. Statistics show that one in five women and one in sixty-seven men will be raped at some point in their lives. Child sexual abuse prevention must be a priority to confront the reality of that one in six boys and one in four girls will experience sexual assault before the age of 18. On campus, one in five women and one in sixteen men are sexually assaulted during their time in college. The theme of this year's Sexual Awareness Month is "Raise Your Voice". The campaign informs individuals how they can use their words to stop sexual violence before it happens by promoting safety, respect, and equality. Our words shape the world around us, whether you speak out against locker room talk or help someone better understand these issues. Your voice is powerful and necessary in this conversation. Individuals can raise their voices to show their support for survivors,stand up to victim blaming, shut down rape jokes, correct harmful misconceptions,promote every day consent, and practice healthy communication with children. I join advocates and communities across the country in taking action to prevent sexual violence. April is Sexual AssaultAwareness Month and each day of the year is an opportunity to create change for the future.
