Men, women, and children are all affected by sexual violence.

1 out of every 6 American women and 1 in 33 American men have experienced an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime. From 2009-2013, Child Protective Services agencies found strong evidence to indicate that 63,000 children a year were victims of sexual abuse.

1 in 9 girls and 1 in 53 boys under the age of 18 experience sexual abuse or assault at the hands of an adult.

Every 68 seconds, an American is sexually assaulted.

And every 9 minutes, that victim is a child.

Sexual violence affects hundreds of thousands of Americans each year. While we’re making progress — the number of assaults has fallen by more than half since 1993 — even today, only 5 out of every 1,000 rapists will end up in prison.
