Care Solace Article: Sexual Assault Awareness Month
This April, as we join hands with communities nationwide during Sexual Assault Awareness Month, acknowledging that countless individuals carry the weight of this experience.
Speaking out about sexual assault can be incredibly difficult, but it's important to know you are not alone. Breaking the silence is a powerful act of bravery, and healing starts with understanding, compassion, and open dialogue.
No one should face this alone. This month serves as an opportunity to challenge the stigma surrounding sexual assault and emphasize the importance of support. If you or someone you know has been affected, please know that Care Solace is here for you.
