MIWSAC Welcomes in Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Our New Digital Workplace Updates. This short Facebook Live will have MIWSAC announcing SAAM Webinar Wednesdays and the various topics, dates, and e-Events for April 2020.

This panel will discuss the role of masculinity in addressing gender-based violence and the responsibilities men carry in their communities to support Survivors, and how to work towards ending sexual violence.

This online discussion will spotlight the role of youth activism and advocacy in addressing gender-based violence in our communities, relationship, and Mother Earth. Let’s listen to youth discuss what their work means to then; their successes, challenges, inspirations, and what adults can do to support their mission to create a better world for all. We will link connections of youth activism and advocacy to ending violence in what ways these issues intersect with Sexual Assault Awareness Month and other gender-based violence.

Sexuality is one aspect that makes up a person’s well-being, but we don’t often have the safe space to talk about it.  Anna Goldtooth and Tamika-Jo Andy will share their experience of promoting healthy sexuality in the Native community. The discussion will include concrete tools and resources to help facilitate conversation around sexuality, including consent and healthy relationships.
