EMERGE, formally known as the Sexual Assault Response Team, hosted "Cup of Prevention" which included speakers from River City Domestic Violence Center, Yankton Police Department, Lewis & Clark Behavioral Health, and Avera Sacred Heart Hospital. Together, these speakers addressed facts and myths about sexual assault and discussed how, as a community, we can work together to prevent sexual assaults from happening and support survivors who have experienced sexual assault.
EMERGE and River City Domestic Violence Center would like to thank everyone who helped make the event possible and those who attended. We are grateful for your support.
This event was held on Denim Day, an international day of sexual assault prevention and awareness. Staff at River City Domestic Violence Center showed support to survivors everywhere by dressing in our denim.
