Sexual violence is ANY type of unwanted sexual contact. This includes words and actions of a sexual nature against a person's will. People may use force, threats, manipulation or coercion to commit sexual violence. Sexual violence can be committed without the knowledge or consent of the victim, or against a person who is unable to give consent.
Sexual Violence shows no boundaries of age, gender, race, socioeconomic background, or religion. Sexual violence takes place in ALL communities both urban, suburban, and rural.
1 in 4 females and 1 in 6 males will be sexually abused in some way by age 18. It is a world-wide epidemic.
