Decide to End Sexual Violence!
Build healthy respectful relationships and communities
*Don’t Be Quiet*Speak Out*Take Action*
Californians can join national efforts to “Decide to End Sexual Violence.” The California Coalition Against Sexual Assault is providing information, tips and tools to maximize successful Sexual Assault Awareness Month planning in California, including action steps that community members, activists, and professional industries can take to end sexual violence.
The tenth annual edition of the Sexual Assault Awareness Month Information Packet for 2009 takes on a new look this year. It will continue to offer comprehensive, user-friendly, theme-based event suggestions, media and public advocacy tools, but in a format that is more easily accessible and usable. We offer this year’s “SAAM Toolbox” in the spirit of strengthening our collective ability to “Decide to End Sexual Violence.”
Please visit out site often as we will be adding more tools for your program, a calendar of events throughout the State for SAAM, and information on Denim Day to be held on Wednesday, April 22nd.
