It’s On Us
The newly launched It’s On Us campaign is a program of the Center for American Progress, in partnership with the White House Council on Women and Girls, and the Department of Health and Human Services Office on Women’s Health. It’s On Us aims to change the way everyone thinks about sexual assault. Instead of viewing it as something that happens only between a victim and an offender, It’s On Us wants everyone to know they have a role to play in preventing sexual assault.
