National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month (SAAPM) is an annual campaign held in April in the United States to raise public awareness about sexual assault, promote education and prevention efforts, and support survivors. The campaign allows individuals, communities, and organizations to come together and take action against sexual violence. The goal is to create a safer environment and a culture that does not tolerate or condone sexual assault.
SAAPM originated in the early 1970s when various local and regional events raised awareness about sexual violence. In 2001, the National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC), working in collaboration with other organizations, formally established April as Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Since then, the campaign has grown into a national movement.
Common themes and activities during SAAPM include:
Educational workshops and presentations to inform communities about the prevalence and impact of sexual assault, consent, and bystander intervention.
Social media campaigns amplify the message and encourage discussions on the issue.
Fundraising events to support organizations that work with survivors and offer resources such as crisis hotlines, counseling, and legal assistance.
Public demonstrations, marches, and rallies to show solidarity with survivors and demand change.
Promoting resources for survivors, such as hotlines, support groups, and counseling services.
Encouraging individuals to pledge to be active bystanders and intervene when they witness situations that could lead to sexual assault.
NSVRC chooses a theme to guide the campaign's focus. These themes can vary but focus on sexual assault prevention and awareness.
