The good news is that prevention is possible and is happening in North Dakota. The Sexual and Domestic Violence Prevention Campaign, Prevention is Possible, is a partnership between CAWS ND, the North Dakota Department of Health, and First Nations Women’s Alliance. The goal is to increase sexual and domestic violence primary prevention work being done across the state and unite efforts behind a shared campaign.
Having conversations about sexual assault, learning how to be an active bystander, challenging behaviors that contribute to violence, and showing support for violence prevention efforts all contribute to ending sexual harassment, misconduct, and abuse in communities. Believing and supporting survivors is another important piece in ending sexual violence. Take a look and choose your one small action to help create safer environments for everyone in ND.
