Fear 2 Freedom: Help Survivors Recover!
Did you know when a victim of sexual violence goes to the hospital for treatment, or a PERK (Physical Evidence Recovery Kit) exam, all of their clothes have to be kept for evidence? This means that survivors are leaving our hospitals in paper scrubs after a moment of great trauma and uncertainty.
Join us in putting together F2F (Fear 2 Freedom) after-care and i-Care kits for victims of sexual assault, child abuse, domestic violence, and sex trafficking. This is a great way to give back, support survivors, and to engage in a service-learning project to help out the local community. Kits will go to the YWCA of South Hampton Roads and to the Women & Gender Equity Center.
Date: Thursday, November 10, 2022
Time: 12 - 2 P.M.
Where: River Rooms (Potomac/York/Lynnhaven)
RSVP: bit.ly/F2F_F22
