The event was sponsored by Cross-Cultural Connections, the Relationship and Sexual Violence Prevention (RVSP) Center and the Gender Equity and Title IX Compliance Office for Sexual Assualt Awareness Month. It was hosted in collaboration with the Asian Multicultural Collective and the Vietnamese Student Association.
