April is Sexual Assault Awareness & Prevention Month 💙
Nearly half of women and 1 in 6 men experience some form of contact sexual violence during their lifetime according to the CDC. Trauma-informed care recognizes that past experiences can shape how people feel in healthcare settings. Creating spaces that prioritize safety, communication, and patient autonomy helps support survivors and promote more compassionate care.
Raising awareness is one step toward building safer healthcare environments for everyone.
