What is Sexual Assault?

Sexual assault is any unwanted sexual act or behavior forced upon you without consent. It can occur in various contexts, including:

  • – Rape or Sexual Violence: Forced or coerced sexual acts.
  • – Sex Trafficking: Exploitation through coercion, manipulation, or force.
  • – IPSV (Intimate Partner Sexual Violence): Sexual violence within a romantic relationship.
  • – Sexual Harassment: Unwanted sexual advances or behaviors in the workplace, school, or other environments.

These experiences often leave lasting emotional and psychological scars, but you don’t have to carry them alone
