SEXUAL ASSAULT AWARENESS MONTH:

For this workshop, we are hoping to prioritize LGBTQ+ and/or BIPOC students who are seeking a dance workshop that centers and affirms their experience. This workshop is open to folx of all races, abilities, genders, and sexual orientations.

We would appreciate it if you self-registered according to how you identify so we can prioritize the groups listed above, but hopefully, we will have the capacity for everyone.

Come to the GRAC at 4:30 PM and make signs with the SARAs in preparation for the SAAM kickoff march! Wear teal to show support for survivors and a commitment to speak up and end sexual assault in our community.

The SAAM kick-off event in Jackson Plaza is to build enthusiasm, express support for survivors, and sound off about rape culture! Festivities begin in Jackson Plaza and conclude with a collective march around campus. Raise your voice in community against sexual assault!

The Bystander Moment is an educational film made by Jackson Katz about cultural ideologies and personal behaviors that perpetuate sexual assault with emphasis on how to disrupt sexual violence by being a positive bystander.

SECURE is hosting a OneLove workshop to teach, discuss, and promote healthy relationships. T-shirts will be available for participants in attendance!

The lacrosse team invites you to attend their game against George Fox and make the OneLove “Love Better” pledge.

Sexual Citizens reveals the social ecosystem that makes sexual assault a predictable element of life on a college campus. The concepts of sexual projects, sexual citizenship, and sexual geographies provide a new language for understanding the forces that shape young people’s sexual relationships. The result transforms our understanding of sexual assault and provides a new roadmap for how to address it. Explore the concepts in Sexual Citizens with Director and Advocate, Andrea Hugmeyer.

Wear jeans with a purpose, support survivors, and educate yourself about sexual assault.

The Denim Day campaign began after a ruling by the Italian Supreme Court where a rape conviction was overturned because the justices felt that since the victim was wearing tight jeans she must have helped the person who raped her remove her jeans, thereby implying consent. The following day, the women in the Italian Parliament came to work wearing jeans in solidarity with the victim. Peace Over Violence developed the Denim Day campaign in response to this case and the activism surrounding it.

The purpose of Take Back the Night is to cultivate a safe space for survivors to speak out about their experiences and empower others to raise their voices to condemn sexual violence. Our keynote speaker, Erin Waters, will be offering wisdom on how the movement against sexual violence is connected to ending other injustices like transphobia, homophobia, ableism, and racism.

Please note that this event is for survivors and their support networks. We encourage everyone to join us, but ask that attendees be aware that this space is specifically designed to center the needs of survivors and their supporters.

“Inpleasure Workshop" led by holistic, trauma-informed sex and pleasure educator, activist and dancer Che Che Luna. Che Che Luna is queer, trans, polyamorous and Latinx, and aims to bridge the gaps in pleasure accessibility so that marginalized and historically oppressed folks can (re)build consensual, sovereign and affirming relationships with Self and others. With all the chronic stress within and around us, dance is a way to unwind, play, discover and land back into our sensuality as gender-diverse folx of all races, abilities, and sexual orientations.

Please note that this event requires registration. Seats are limited.
