Reporting Online was created for us to have a space to have a voice. It is totally anonymous. We see it on the backend and share it with no one. We will only share the numbers. Everyone can report online and are encouraged to so we can see numbers. You can also report online if your perp is dead, if your statute of limitations is up, if you want to remain anonymous, or if you're like me and don't even know the name of your rapist - report it online. But the key is to show up in person on April 29th. If you or someone you love was affected by sexual violence, show up! We are beginning this campaign on Feb 19th at the Victim's Rights Rally. Check out http://pavingtheway.net/
and please show up! We are repeating this rally but even bigger on April 29th!
You should contact your local Rape Crisis Center to go with you to the Report IT Day on April 29th for moral support and to help you report it to the police if you so choose. We are putting up all info on the Report IT website and also this blog. More to come!
