Sexual Assault Awareness Month At DCFNE
Caring for survivors of sexual assault is at the heart of our mission. That is why we proudly commemorate Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) each April. This year's theme, “Together We Act, United We Change,” underscores the importance of collective action in addressing and preventing sexual violence. Here are a few ways you can get involved:
Spread Awareness
Share content from DCFNE’s free Social Media ToolKit on your personal social media accounts! We have made it easier than ever to spread the word about the important services that DCFNE offers to survivors of sexual assault.
Distribute outreach materials to local businesses, medical providers, and places of interest. Complete the Outreach Material Request Form and we will send you everything you need!
Support DCFNE
Make a donation to expand our capacity for outreach, education, and patient care. DCFNE is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and all donations are tax-deductible. Checks can be made out to DCFNE and mailed to 101 Q Street NE, Suite T02, Washington, DC, 20002.
Donate items from DCFNE’s Amazon Wishlist. Whether it is snacks, drinks, fidget toys, or office supplies, all of these items help DCFNE to support the survivors we work with.
