​Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Month

Sexual violence is an umbrella term that includes any type of unwanted sexual contact — either in person or online — including sexual assault, harassment, and abuse. 
Forms of sexual violence include:
Rape or sexual assault Sexual harassment  Sexual abuse Unwanted sexual contact/touching Sexual exploitation and trafficking Exposing one’s genitals or naked body to others without consent Nonconsensual image sharing Words and actions of a sexual nature against a person’s will and without their consent Sexual violence represents a range of behaviors  Sexual violence represents a range of behaviors
From sexual assault to catcalling, acts of sexual violence fall within a spectrum of behaviors. Certain behaviors are clear-cut examples of online sexual abuse, like “Zoom-bombing” links to pornography, while there are other behaviors, like sending a partner an unwanted sexual text on a dating app, that may seem like less of a big deal. The reality is that both of these behaviors are influenced by the same attitudes and beliefs that lead to sexual violence, such as social norms that directly or indirectly condone violence, traditional ideas about masculinity, attempts to demand and degrade women, and other forms of oppression.

This April, during Sexual Assault Awareness Month, learn how you can practice consent online, keep the kids in your life safe from abuse, facilitate and participate in respectful online communities. In addition, explore the impact that trauma from online abuse can have and the options available for survivors looking for support. As new platforms emerge and technology expands, by leading with these foundational principles we can build safe online spaces now and into the future.
