Did you know that April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM)? SAAM is a time to not only honor the experiences of survivors, but to spread awareness about how we can all help to end sexual violence in our communities. All month long, SASSMM will be hosting live events on our Facebook and Instagram! Come join us as our advocates discuss sexting, consent, and more! We'll be chatting, frosting cupcakes, and cooking noodles along the way.
April 14th 6-7pm: Noodles and Sending Nudes
Join Kendra and Elise as they make sesame noodles and talk about sending nudes! They'll be talking about how to engage in sexting with consent and safety in mind.
April 19th 6-7pm: Pinwheels and Parents: A Conversation About Child Sexual Abuse & Children's Advocacy Centers
Join SASSMM's Midcoast CAC on Facebook Live as they talk about keeping kids safe and what to do when child sexual abuse happens. This interactive event is great for parents, caregivers, and anyone who works with kids.
April 28th 6-7pm: Cupcakes and Consent
What does asking for consent look like? In what situations is consent not possible? What is an enthusiastic yes? Join Hannah and Al on our Facebook Live as they frost cupcakes and talk all about consent.
