April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month

April is sexual assault awareness month. It's never to early to start planning what your community is going to do to honor those who have already been victimized, and to start educating those who need to learn more. 

Watch the following videos on this link and get inspired.  Then send the information about your event to The Awareness Center and we might be able to include information about the events you're planning on our web page.

In honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, The Awareness Center is providing the following songs and movie clips available on the internet that are about child sexual abuse, incest and sexual assault.

This song is about Domestic Violence and not sexual abuse. The thing is that marital rape is a sex crime so I'm including this song for that reason. It's by Tracy Chapman

Here's another song, which is by the Carpenters. It's not directly about child abuse, yet eludes to it.
Karen Carpenter singing - "Bless the Beast and the Children"
