The National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC) coordinates Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) every April to educate people about this widespread issue. This year, the SAAM theme is "We Can Build Safe Online Spaces" -- because sexual harassment and abuse can happen anywhere, including online. RCC is committed to fostering a safe space for all students, staff, faculty, and the community at large.
Project Access at RCC is dedicated to helping students with all aspects of life, and in particular helping any students affected by sexual harassment, assault, and domestic abuse. You can find Project Access resources here: https://www.rcc.mass.edu/current-students/project-access.html

This documentary features raw, powerful interviews with 18 diverse cisgender and transgender women about their sexual & reproductive health histories. Women from a variety of racial and ethnic, age, sexual orientation, and class backgrounds candidly recount their histories with sexual education, early sexual experiences, abortion, birth control, masturbation, relationships, gender transition, menstruation, STIs, gynecological exams, sexual assault, pregnancy, pleasure, and much more.
IT WAS RAPE gives human faces and voices to statistics, breaking through the silence, denial and victim blaming that allow an epidemic to thrive. Eight women of different backgrounds, ages and ethnicities relate personal stories of surviving sexual assault in their younger years, as well as their struggles toward healing, empowerment, and finally speaking out.
