The 2003 Sexual Awareness campaign focused on the trauma and prevalence of child sexual abuse, a problem of crisis proportions in Rhode Island and nationwide.Day One unveiled a massive campaign in April to heighten the
community's awareness and to encourage people to take action to end all sexual violence and particularly abuse against children.
The statistics are alarming. One in five children will be the victim of
sexual abuse before the age of 18. Only one in 10 children will report the abuse. In 2002 alone, Day One provided services to nearly 700 victims of childhood sexual abuse.
Begin your own campaign to end sexual violence. Take action.
