LAWTON, Okla. (TNN) - Marie Detty New Directions is spreading the word to educate the community on consent, rape and sexual assault for Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
Every 73 seconds an American is sexually assaulted. Not every victim tells their story for different reasons. It could be fear, embarrassment or shame.
Latricia Kippers from New Directions said we can start changing the stigma by believing survivors.
“It’s important to believe survivors,” she said. “It’s important to believe that person and do everything that you can to get them connected with services, whether it’s reporting it to law enforcement, getting them to the hospital to get checked out.”
