Date Rape (Sexual Assault): It Could Happen To You

In the United States, a woman is sexually assaulted (raped) every two minutes. 

Sexual assault is one of the leading crimes committed against women, but is not openly discussed or publicized.  

Date rape refers to rape committed by a person, who may be a friend, acquaintance or stranger. Commonly, date rape is referring to drug facilitated sexual assault or an acquaintance rape.  Date rape too, is rarely discussed because many women (and men) feel they will be scrutinized because they may have willingly agreed to the date itself.   

On this episode of Hot Topics Talk Radio, we’re going to discuss this horrendous act of violence; being aware of your surroundings, drug and alcohol facilitated assaults, as well as avoiding situations while dating.  We will also discuss resources to obtain help if you’ve been a victim of sexual assault. 

Join us on Wednesday, March 20, 2013 to discuss this issue, and how to do all you can to not become a victim.
