Sexual assault continues to plague college campuses, workplaces, and homes. It is a crime that is too often kept secret or swept under the rug, but more and more survivors are making their voices heard. Each section of this modern comprehensive guide will take the reader through what defines sexual assault, where it occurs, people who are affected, safety guidelines, how colleges deal with sexual assault, why it's not reported, prosecution, and recovery and healing for survivors. Also included are several documented cases in which victims shared their experiences to help give readers a sense of empowerment.
