“Sexual Citizens” Discussion during Sexual Assault Awareness Month
Throughout April, we will demonstrate our heartfelt commitment to empower survivors with activities that support their resilience, hope, and healing, and we encourage our community to learn more about this topic to increase awareness, prevention, and knowledge.

Hirsch and Shamus Khan will be on hand to share powerful insights from their work.
