Sexual Abuse and Prevention Awareness Month

Updated: Apr 16, 2021

Did you know that the month of April is Sexual Abuse and Prevention Awareness month?


This is important to our community because people with intellectual and developmental disabilities are seven times more likely to experience sexual assault and women with IDD are twelve times more likely. For more facts and stats about this important topic please visit the DDS website HERE.
