April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

Knowing how to show up for survivors matters. The way we respond can either help someone feel seen and believed, or cause further harm.

Learn the dos and don’ts, and commit to being the kind of person survivors can trust. 💙

🗣 Healthy communication is more than just talking—it’s being heard. In strong relationships, you can speak your truth, express your fears, be yourself—and know your voice matters.

Whether you experienced s*xual assault, dating violence, or both—healing is possible, and you are not alone. These experiences can leave deep emotional wounds and lasting impacts, but none of it is your fault.

You may feel confused, blamed, isolated, or overwhelmed. You may grieve your old self, lose friendships, or struggle with your mental health. All of this is a normal response to trauma—not a reflection of your strength or worth.
