During Sexual Assault Awareness Month, we engage in meaningful learning and reflection on the impact of sexual violence and how we can contribute to a culture of support and prevention. Together with UNE’s Office of Title IX and Civil Rights Compliance, we have created a reading list with a diverse selection of resources to deepen understanding of sexual assault, its effects on survivors, and ways to foster safer communities.
