The SAAM Day of Action (formerly A Day to End Sexual Violence), to be observed in 2009 on Wednesday, April 8, 2009, is recognized nationally as a specific day to focus awarness on sexual violence prevention. Through coordinated planning of special events, advocates can raise awareness, media attention and national momentum for ending and preventing sexual violence. The NSVRC encourages participants and those planning special activities to visit our Event Suggestions page for ideas on how to observe this day in your community and to post your events on the online calendar.

If you have a photograph from a SAAM Day of Action event or activity that you are willing to share, please send a copy to NSVRC via email to resources@nsvrc.org or by mail. Events from across the country may be spotlighted in the NSVRC events calendar, future SAAM materials, newsletters or on our website.
