‘Rise Up, Resist and Reclaim’: A look back at Sexual Assault Action Month

During April, Safer raised awareness for Sexual Assault Action Month, supported survivors and hosted a variety of resources and events. This included an open mic night, healing-centered yoga and a drag show, followed by Take Back the Night, an international survivor solidarity event. 

Safer hosted 18 events during the month, hoping to foster a sense of community for survivors, while allowing a safe space for conversations surrounding sexual violence, said Claire Lopez, Safer’s Campus Crisis Advocate. Lopez believes having spaces to process is important for Cal Poly and the greater San Luis Obispo area.
