9th Annual GDS Summit on Sexual Assault & Consent

The overwhelming cultural perception of consent is largely focused on female identified partners giving consent. It is critically important that we uplift the voices and experiences of a diversity of survivors in order to foster safety and supportive resources to all. In this session, we will share our new short film discussing the experience of a male survivor and helping to dispel the myth that young men can't experience assault or unhealthy relationships. We will invite participants to learn and share ways to reduce myths and increase access to healing and support in their schools and among their peers.
