EDUCATION & AWARENESS  


Our goal for community awareness is to increase the community's knowledge of the prevalence and the problem of sexual violence as well as to increase the community's knowledge of the support groups available to survivors and services for those impacted indirectly. 

The Problem

According to RAINN.org (The nation’s largest anti-sexual violence organization)—

  • every 68 seconds, an American is sexually assaulted
  • the majority of sexual assault victims are under age 30
  • ages 12-34 are the highest risk years for rape and sexual assault
  • 1 out of every 6 American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime
  • 90% of child sexual abuse cases, the child knows and trusts the person who commits the abuse
  • only 25 out of every 1,000 rapists will end up in prison

Why community awareness?


Awareness-raising is a process that seeks to inform and educate people ab​out a topic or issue with the intention of influencing their attitudes, behaviours and beliefs towards the achievement of a defined purpose or goal.

Our lawmakers have tried to control this “silent epidemic” by making sure that convicted sex offenders register with the police. But most sex offenders are never reported. So the police and the courts can’t tell you about these individuals because they don’t know who they are.


It’s common for many child victims to not receive the appropriate help to address the emotional wounding which only leads to additional pain in adulthood through unhealthy relationships, trust and control issues, low self esteem, drug and alcohol abuse, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), etc in addition to distorted thinking of spiritual matters.


Since sexual abuse is the most unreported type of crime and statistics only provide minimal data and not a true factor of exact numbers—one can only surmise we’re facing a worldwide problem.
