How to Talk to Youth About That Thing That You Don’t Want to Talk About

  • It’s both shocking and sad that more than half of all victims of sexual assault are under the age of 18 (US Dept. Of Justice. 2010). At the Rape Assistance And Awareness Program (RAAP), we are passionate about reaching out to teens in an effort to prevent further victimization. This presentation will explore some strategies that we can use to engage in healthy conversations with youth about rape and sexual assault. We will also speak to the opportunities RAAP is currently offering for teens in the Metro Denver area, as well as upcoming programming.
