Donate for Giving Tuesday, 2018!

November 27, 2018 By HKearl

Where did you first experience sexual harassment?

If I had to guess, I’d say it was when you were in a public space, like a street, store, bus, restaurant, swimming pool, or park.

Our 2018 national survey, funded in large part by our 2017 Giving Tuesday campaign, shows that public spaces are where people were most likely to first experience this type of violation… often as a teenager or younger! Public spaces also are the most common place to experience sexual harassment, period.

This is not okay and we need YOUR help to change this.

Indeed, we work hard every day to change this reality:

  • We run a website for people to share their stories and find resources (nearly 2 million people have visited).
  • We fund the only national hotline where people can find support, run by staff at the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network.
  • We conduct research that informs policy. In 2019, we hope to conduct a five-year update to our 2014 ground-breaking study on street harassment.
  • We mobilize community action globally each spring through International Anti-Street Harassment Week.
  • We work on local efforts, like the anti-harassment transit campaign in Washington, D.C.

This year, we commemorated 10 years of action. Across that time, we have seen a lot of positive change, including more people recognizing that this is a human rights violation and more people and entities taking action to stop it.

With your support, we can continue our important work in 2019, including running the national street harassment hotline, Anti-SH Week, and doing new research.

Most of our funds come from individual donors. With a small nonprofit like ours, your funds literally make the difference between us being able to do programming and not.  Please, take this opportunity to invest in a future where everyone is safe in public spaces!
