City Club of Cleveland - Turning the Tide on Sexual Assault

City Club of Cleveland

In recent years, sexual violence in Northeast Ohio made national and international headlines. Incidents in Steubenville and on Cleveland's Seymour Avenue put a national spotlight on these communities. These two high profile incidents only scratch the surface when it comes to the frequency of sexual assault, rape and the reemergence of human-trafficking in our state. This community conversation will shed light on the broader issue of sexual violence with a focus on intervention, prevention programs, restorative justice, and initiatives to empower survivors and their support networks.

Join Katie Hanna, Executive Director of the Ohio Alliance to End Sexual Violence; Nickie J. Antonio, State Representative for Ohio House District 13; Andres Gonzalez, Chief of Police for Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority; and Sondra Miller, President and CEO of the Cleveland Rape Crisis Center, in a conversation moderated by Rachel Dissell of The Plain Dealer.
