<Title>Drawing Connections: Prevention Demands Equity</Title>
<Tagline>April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><p>Every April, Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) calls
    attention to the impact sexual violence has on our community and how we all
    play a part in prevention.</p>
    
    <p>The national theme of SAAM 2023 is “Drawing Connections:
    Prevention Demands Equity.” The campaign recognizes sexual violence as both a
    public health and social justice issue. <span>Systems
    of oppression such as racism, sexism, classism, heterosexism, ageism, ableism,
    and others contribute to higher rates of sexual harassment, assault, and abuse.</span></p>
    
    <p>This year, we encourage you to examine and <span>draw connections between various forms of oppression and
    the underlying causes of sexual assault. In addition, explore how certain
    groups of people are at higher risk for sexual violence and how those same
    people are also the most impacted by inequitable systems and oppression in our
    society.</span></p>
    
    <p>This April don’t focus just on awareness but also action. <span>We’re asking you to join us in building equity and respect
    within our community. </span><span>We
    can help create change if we take the time to hear, understand, and recognize
    one another. </span><span></span></p>
    
    <p>Explore the UMBC departments and events that can help you
    build skills towards prevention and equity. Pick from this
    list at least <strong>one</strong> thing you can do to prevent sexual violence:</p>
