Survivors of Sexual Violence Have the Right to Speak Out

Everyone has the right to live free from sexual assault, and all survivors have the right to speak out about violence they have experienced.

If you are a survivor of sexual assault looking for support and resources, please contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 800.656.HOPE or www.rainn.org.

If someone has threatened to sue you or to take other legal action against you because you reported a sexual assault, share your story with us through our survey.
