We believe you. We support you. We are here for you. We are still who we are. We are a community. We are here for one another.

We fight, as survivors and as allies, alongside and on behalf of those whose voices are ignored, those whose experiences have been dismissed, and those whose lives must be centered, not marginalized. We know, deeply, that we each have a role to play in creating a compassionate, just, and loving world.

We embraced this role yesterday, we will today, and we will tomorrow, for as long as it takes.

We invite you to join us. Join us by supporting the survivors in your lives, by teaching your children about consent, by confronting sexism, by volunteering, or by donating to support our comprehensive, free services.  Every action sends a strong message that you, like RVA, are steadfast in your commitment to support survivors and end sexual violence.

As always, take care of yourselves and of one another. You matter.

In solidarity,

Rape Victim Advocates
