What We Do

Roe v. Rape helps survivors of sexual violence heal through activism and prevents sexual violence through education.

When a person has experienced sexual assault, they often feel a sense of powerlessness. We hope to help survivors reclaim their power. Our coalition provides a supportive community to collectively fight for survivors' rights and make it clear that the survivor population, consisting of approximately 1.9 billion people worldwide, cannot be ignored. Roe v. Rape is a new organization, so currently only operates in Ann Arbor, MI, San Francisco, CA, and Washington, D.C.; however, we intend to expand to all fifty states and beyond in the coming months and years.
