April is Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Month and Texas A&M University Health Promotion has partnered with several campus departments and community organizations to offer prevention education and awareness programming throughout the month.

The theme this year is “Solidarity,” paying tribute to the foundations of the national prevention and awareness movement, as well as serving as a call to action.

On April 1, the Sexual Assault Resource Center (SARC), UnBound Bryan College Station, and Twin City Mission Domestic Violence Services will join Health Promotion for a live panel to introduce the history and importance of Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Month, while also engaging in an honest discussion about strengthening education, advocacy and policy to address the intersection of sexual violence with other public health issues.

Subsequently, Health Promotion will hold Community Conversations each Wednesday in April from 6-7:30 p.m.

Topics of discussion include:

Changing Organizational Culture
Men in the Movement
Mental Health and Resilience
Elevating Marginalized Voices

See the full calendar of events for a comprehensive listing of opportunities to engage.
