Between stories of sexual violence, intimate partner violence, gender-based violence, & gun violence, it’s understandable if you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or distressed—especially if you’re a survivor. You're not alone. Reach out: 800-841-8371 or barcc.org/chat

Halloween is almost here! As you're celebrating with tricks and treats, just remember that a costume is NOT consent. Halloween is not an excuse to touch someone without their permission, or to make sexual comments. Consent is necessary, every day of the year! #CostumeNotConsent
