Who is Affected by Sexual Assault?

These numbers are real and nationwide, but it's important to note that statistics are what is reported, recorded, and reviewed. Many survivors of sexual violence and power-based personal violence do not report their experience for a number of reasons, making the truth behind the numbers less reliable than what individuals actually experience on campuses and in communities across the nation.
