*****ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT, IF NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT PROJECT THE WOMEN'S RIGHTS COALITION & YOU WILL BE INVOLVED WITH IN COLLEGE.****

Did you know CUNY does not have a university-wide sexual assault policy?
You can help change that. We are in a historical time because a task force has been assembled with CUNY faculty, staff, administration, Public Safety & students to create this policy, which WILL go into effect next year for all 450,000 students.

****1/4 WOMEN IN COLLEGE WILL BE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED AT LEAST ONCE. PLEASE COME AND SHOW THE TASKFORCE STUDENTS CARE ABOUT THIS IMPORTANT TOPIC****

Make it a policy that reflects YOUR voice. Come to a public forum & tell the taskforce what you want to see on the policy. In attendance: Vice Chancellor of Legal Affairs for all of CUNY & other taskforce members, including women's rights coalition pres. Jerin Alam. FREE Food!

****WHAT WE WILL BE ADVOCATING FOR********
1. Mandatory prevention education, without which the policy will be uselss
(not having mandatory education, and only holding voluntary workshops will attract the people who probably don't need those workshops to begin with. Most people will not think of this until it's too late.)
2. anonymous reporting, found in the good campus policies in other schools
