May is Sexual Violence Awareness Month. It's a time to shine a light on a critical issue that affects millions worldwide. Let's break the silence, educate ourselves, and support survivors. Together, we can create a world free from sexual violence. #SVAM

Validating a survivor of assault can be a powerful way to support them in their healing journey. If someone discloses they have experienced sexual violence, it's important to listen to and believe them. Avoid questioning, judging or doubting their experience. #SVAM
