Prevalence: 

  • 1 in 5 college women will be assaulted.  Sexual assaults often happen during the first six weeks of college, and victims are often first-year women
    • Why? Perpetrators are targeting people who might appear more vulnerable.
  • 1 in 6 men are sexual abuse or assault survivors in their lifetime.
    • Different than women, victimization for males is much more likely to occur when they are young boys in the form of sexual abuse.
