Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month 2023

The #HEALTogether encourages the survivor community and their loved ones to come together in their healing from sexual violence and the dangers online. Leaning on each other during times of hardship, and during times of triumph, can provide individuals a sense of safety and belonging while healing from trauma. Healing together is a courageous and vulnerable act of sharing yourself with others in safe spaces that can bring validation, support, and recovery. RAINN works to amplify all voices and all experiences in our survivor community. Survivors across the nation come from various backgrounds and experiences. At RAINN, we come together in healing and to encourage all to rely on and support the National Sexual Assault Hotline when we also celebrate the diversity a survivor brings which encompasses, but is not limited to, a survivor's national origin, language, race, color, disability, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, socioeconomic status, veteran status, and family structures.
