FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

At The Compass Center, we often hear people ask, "What difference can one person make?" The truth resonates clearly: one person, taking even small actions, will create ripples that transform communities. Today, we want to share our vision of how your individual commitment can join with others to create meaningful change in addressing sexual assault and domestic violence.

When stories of sexual and domestic violence appear in our news feeds, they often focus on the perpetrator, the crime, or the legal consequences. These headlines, while necessary for public awareness, can inadvertently reinforce feelings of isolation among survivors and fail to highlight the pathways to healing and prevention that exist in our community.
