Take Steps to Avoid Sexual Assault
One in four females is likely to be sexually assaulted in her lifetime, as is one in six
males. Approximately every two minutes, someone in the United States is sexually
assaulted, and two-thirds of the people assaulted know their attacker—an acquain-
tance, a friend, or a family member. Females between the ages of 18 and 24 are more
28
likely to be stalked, harassed, or sexually assaulted than any other age group. In fact,
most sexual assaults among that age range occur on college campuses or on dates. 29
Sexual assault includes a wide range of behaviors, often called the “sexual violence
continuum,” ranging from obscene phone calls, to exhibitionism, to actual penetration

or forced prostitution. Unfortunately, many behaviors bordering on or involving sex-
ual assault are actually advertised or condoned by society and the media. Kelly and
Becca’s program, One Student, provides resources, facts, and programs for students on
campuses around the nation, aiming to edu-
cate students and create a future where
sexual assaults no longer occur.
Rape is not about sex, it’s about
one person exerting power over another.
Rape is not caused by the victim’s behavior
or clothing, any more than auto theft is caused by
the owner of the car. Rape is about one person having nonconsensual sex (without per-
mission) with another. It can happen on a date, at home, or at a party. And it’s a crime.
