关于我们
The NYC Alliance Against Sexual Assault defines sexual violence as: Any completed or attempted sexual act against a person’s will or against a person unable to give consent. Sexual violence encompasses a continuum of acts, ranging from unwanted sexual comments or advances to completed rape. Anyone can experience sexual violence. While the majority of acts are perpetrated by someone known to the victim, anyone can perpetrate sexual violence--a stranger, a person in a position of power or trust, an acquaintance, a relative, a friend, or an intimate partner. VISION The New York City Alliance Against Sexual Assault’s vision is a city free from sexual violence. MISSION The mission of the New York City Alliance Against Sexual Assault is to build the capacity of communities, organizations, and institutions to advance the right to live free from sexual violence and reduce the harm it causes individuals, families, and society. WHAT WE DO ? Inform the community about available resources for services, education and training ? Document the problem of sexual assault/abuse in the city ? Analyze city system policy and its effect on survivors ? Improve systems through advocacy ? Educate the public ? Disseminate information ? Serve as a clearinghouse ? Represent the needs of NYC sexual assault/abuse survivors ? Link with other organizations to advance our agenda ? Initiate and support research on relevant issues

Today, as always, the Alliance stands with survivors. More than ever, we are committed to our work of reducing the harm caused by sexual violence and preventing it from ever happening. ? While our vision of a sexual violence-free New York City and our commitment to survivors has not changed, we recognize how difficult the U.S. presidential election period has been and will continue to be for so many communities and especially for survivors of sexual violence. ? To all survivors: we believe you, we stand with you, and we will continue to be here fighting for you no matter who is in office. We will continue to hold decision-makers to account to ensure that survivors' rights are upheld, needs are addressed, and voices are heard. ? If you or a loved one needs support, help is available right here in NYC. For immediate assistance, you can contact Safe Horizon’s 24-hour hotline at 1-800-621-4673 or access their chatline at?safehorizon.org/safechat. You can also refer to the Alliance’s Sexual Violence Survivor?Resource Guide, available in both English and Spanish, to find the best option for you.

Our executive director, Emily Miles, joins with survivors to bring attention to the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Law, which has created a city look-back window for survivors of sexual violence until March 2025.
“The trauma of sexual abuse — especially abuse that occurs at such a young age — takes years to process before many are able to begin to even think about coming forward and reporting,” said Emily Miles, executive director of the New York City Alliance Against Sexual Assault. “For those who face the compound trauma of abuse while incarcerated, the process of reporting can take even longer.” Honored to stand with these survivors today to call for accountability for the harm they experienced and an end to the abuse that continues to take place in juvenile detention facilities.
