How can YOU make a difference?

Every person knows a survivor of sexual assault, even if they don’t know it, because many survivors suffer in silence. Or perhaps you are a survivor who wants to transform anger into action to help others. Regardless of why you are here, your voice matters and you can make a significant impact in your community. Learn about how you can make a difference today.

Educate Yourself

The most impactful thing any one person can do is to educate themselves to know how to respond if someone discloses to you. If you are a survivor, education can help you heal. Learn about the educational options available to you through PAVE.

Support a Survivor

Survivors often feel shame or guilt, and many suffer from post traumatic stress disorder. Society and loved ones can re-traumatize them with language that places responsibility on the survivor. PAVE offers several ways to support survivors.

Join the Movement

We aim to empower victim-survivors and strive to prevent sexual violence through education, advocacy, and community action. We need supporters to join the movement so we can continue to help survivors thrive as well as transform our culture.
