Sexual Assault Awareness Month

Sexual Assault Awareness Month:   

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month (awareness month color is teal).

               Break the Silence,
End the Violence.

• 1 in 5 women and 1 in 33 men will be sexually assaulted in their college years.
• Among women who were sexually assaulted, 80-90% knew their attacker.
• It is helpful to tell a survivor explicitly, “I believe you”. It’s often unhelpful to ask survivors why they made certain choices (e.g., “Why did you leave the party with him/her?”)

The Sexual Assault Crisis Service (SACS) at IU Health Center is sponsoring THE CLOSELINE PROJECT: T-SHIRT DISPLAY & CLOSING CEREMONY. The Clothesline Project aims to shine a light on the prevalence of sexual violence, and pay homage to victims and survivors. It focuses on giving power back to those who have experienced violence. It creates campus wide education that breaks the silence surrounding sexual violence. It gives survivors a sense of support, knowing they are not alone in their experiences. Lastly, it encourages students, staff, faculty, and community members to engage in social justice activism.

T-shirts will be displayed April 11 & 12, 10am-3pm & April 13, 10am-12pm at IU Health Center lawn.

A ceremony honoring survivors and victims will take place April 12, 3pm at IU Health Center lawn.

I’d like to personally invite you to join former Governor, Mitch Daniels, co-founder/former CEO of Angie’s List, Bill Oesterle, and others at the inaugural Indiana Torchbearers Talent Summit Friday, April 13th at 3:30 PM in Indianapolis. This free and exclusive event aims to bring together current business, political, and civic leaders in Indiana with the state’s top young adult talent to discuss the future of Indiana’s professional community. Please join us as we build this grassroots movement to showcase the Hoosier state’s growing list of opportunities in tech, healthcare, business, and many other sectors.

Indiana Torchbearers is a grassroots collective of Hoosier talent. We find promising young talent in the state (that’s you!) and connect them with job opportunities, mentors, and a professional network. At the event, you’ll gain access to networking opportunities with major business and political leaders in Indiana while engaging in a conversation about how to keep top talent in Indiana. Not only will this be a great professional event, but also an evening of food, fun, and Hoosier hospitality hosted by the Indy Chamber of Commerce, The Heritage Group, The Orr Fellowship, TMap and the Indiana Talent Repository. Find out more about the event and RSVP here!
