About

Building Connected Communities helps us reduce the likelihood of sexual abuse, assault, and harassment in our communities. Any space where people come together is a community, whether in neighborhoods, workplaces, campuses, organizations, or even online spaces.

In 23rd Annual Sexual Assault Awareness Month Campaign, NSVRC Calls for Building Connected Communities to Prevent Sexual Violence.

April 2024 marks the official 23rd anniversary of Sexual Assault Awareness Month — but did you know we can trace its history even longer?

NSVRC recognizes 28 leaders in sexual violence prevention. The Visionary Voice Awards are presented annually in conjunction with SAAM to honor those making a difference in our communities.

Sexual Assault Awareness Month calls attention to the fact that sexual violence is widespread and impacts every person in the community. This section links to resources from past SAAM campaigns on various topics and themes.
