Working Together And/Or Apart: Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence

Publisher(s):
This issue of The Resource, Newsletter of the National Sexual Violence Resource Center, provides a healthy discussion of sexual violence and domestic violence collaboration and appreciation of respective work by interviewing two advocates - Annette Burrhus-Clay and Joyce Lukima - that have worked in sexual assault program, domestic violence programs and dual issue (both sexual & domestic violence) programs. The challenges and benefits of operating dual programs are explored, as well as the implications for sexual assault survivors. Both advocates suggest that anti-sexual violence advocates define our own goals and directions and educate legislators, funders and the general public about the unique needs of sexual assault survivors while working as allies with anti-domestic violence advocates.

Women of Color (SCESA) Changing the face of the Anti-Sexual Violence Movement

Author(s): Publisher(s):
This article describes the process state/territory anti-sexual violence coalitions began to establish opportunity, support and leadership development for Women of Color in the anti-sexual violence movement. It presents a model for addressing the presence of racism in our lives and in our work as anti-sexual violence advocates. The process began with a needs assessment and report reviewing five key issues relevant to Women of Color leadership at sexual assault coalitions. SCESA offers technical assistance around planning and implementation of the report findings. The authors see this type of strategic planning as one component in an effort to establish a more 'coordinated, comprehensive and culturally appropriate response to sexual assault throughout the country.'
