Hi my name is Kamia and April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. This is really important because there are kids and teens that this has happened and they didn’t get justice the person who did it to them didn’t go to jail or have consequences for their actions. When a victim tells their parents or anybody else about what happened maybe somebody at school maybe their friend sometimes they say that it was the victim’s fault and that they deserved it. This Is not true it is not the victims fault they couldn’t control what happened to them. It not only happens to females, but can also happen to males. it’s really important that we bring awareness to these problems and not just push them away. It’s really important that we help these victims and show them that they’re not alone and the people who did this to them should be behind bars. There are over 650 million girls and women and 410-530 million boys that have gone through this. This is a lot of girls and boys and this is a huge problem, but we can fix this problem by bringing awareness and telling our stories. So start bringing Awareness.
