Rape, domestic violence and other forms of sexual and gender based violence are a quiet curse in our homes, schools and communities. Even our churches are filled with survivors, perpetrators and the scars of suffering. One in three women* in the US has experienced sexual or gender based violence in her lifetime; and though male survivors are fewer in number, men are not immune. Yet rape is the most under-reported crime in our nation. Shame and fear cover this epidemic with silence.

WE WILL SPEAK OUT. WE WILL BE SILENT NO MORE. We stand together in solidarity with the most vulnerable. We dedicate ourselves to finding lasting solutions.
