VULNERABLE CO-EDS

Sexual assault disproportionately affects college women and impedes their ability to participate fully in campus life. Educational equity for women and girls requires fair, responsive, fully developed campus sexual assault policies, knowledgeable administrators, and, ultimately, an end to sexual violence on campuses. After years of hard work by advocates such as AAUW, the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act (VAWA) was made law in March of 2013. The updated VAWA’s campus safety provisions, sometimes called Campus SaVE, require colleges and universities to take new steps to end sexual violence.
