Reviewed by Sandy Costanza D’Youville College, Buffalo, NYSexual assault happens all too frequently, many times to those who are young, unsuspecting, unprepared and or under the influence. This video serves to educate in a three part presentation. What is Sexual Assault? What is Consent?, After an Assault and Risk Reduction and Bystander Intervention.
It explains in easy to understand language what has happened, what to do if it does happen and how to prevent it from happening. Three women who have experienced an assault take the viewer through the process and the emotions tied to each stage.
The film is concise, informative, sensitive and useful. It would be a great addition to any health or sexuality class in both middle and high school.
