Sexual Assault

Sexual assault is any type of unwanted sexual activity by someone whom you have not given your consent. A sexual assault may include the use of physical force, threats, or intimidation. Sexual assault is a crime.

Sexual assault takes many forms. It is any unwanted sexual contact or attention achieved by force, threats, bribes, manipulation, pressure, tricks or violence. Sexual assault may be physical or nonphysical and can include sexual harassment, flashing, voyeurism, fondling, attempted rape or rape. Sexual assault is not about sex, but about the perpetrator gaining power and control over their victim. Anyone can become a victim of sexual assault.  Sexual assault is a crime that is more often committed by acquaintances, friends and relatives.
