Wow! What an INCREDIBLE day at the University of Akron for our Start by Believing Day pledge event. Thank you to the University of Akron SAVE team for helping us make this event a reality - we couldn't have pulled this off without your collaboration, especially Dean of Students Michael Strong and Hope & Healing Survivor Resource Center! We also want to give a special thank you to the student volunteers who ran our activity stations, including memebrs of the University of Akron Student Government and Alpha Phi, Delta Gamma, and Alpha Delta Pi sororities.

So many students stopped by to sign our pledge, learn more about common myths surrounding sexual violence, resources available for survivors, and how to support someone who discloses a sexual assault incident to them. We heard a lot of great conversations happening around all of our stations.

If you completed your Start by Believing Day passport and entered our raffle, keep an eye on your email in case you won a basket!

📅 January is also Stalking Awareness Month!

Stalking is often more than just unwanted attention—it can intersect with domestic violence and sexual assault, making it even more dangerous. Many stalkers are current or former partners who use stalking to exert power and control, creating fear and uncertainty for their victims.

💙 At Hope and Healing, we understand the complexities of stalking and its connection to other forms of abuse. Our compassionate team is here to help you navigate these challenges and provide support every step of the way.

📞 Need help or have questions about stalking? Call our confidential 24-hour hotline: (330) 374-1111. You are not alone—we’re here to listen, believe, and support.
