The PROTECT Our Children Act of 2022 (H.R. 8816) Provides Support to Rescue Children and Investigate and Arrest Perpetrators of Sex Offenses Against Children

Washington, D.C. — Congress today passed the PROTECT Our Children Act, safeguarding the future of agencies that identify child victims of sexual abuse and exploitation and apprehend offenders. The bill now heads to the White House for President Biden’s signature.

It’s that time of the year again! Coming up on Tuesday, November 30, 2021 is #GivingTuesday, an international, global day of generosity and philanthropy where individuals and organizations come together to give, connect, collaborate, and contribute to a cause that is near and dear to their hearts.

This Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month (SAAPM), keep RAINN in mind when shopping by selecting purchases that give back.

RAINN Day is an annual day of awareness and action about sexual violence held on college campuses around the country during Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. This year, RAINN Day will be held on Thursday, April 8.

RAINN Day (April 8, 2021) is an annual way for college students across the country to speak out about sexual violence and raise awareness on this pervasive issue. This year, as many college events once again are virtual due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are hosting a special planning webinar—“Won’t Stay Quiet: Planning for RAINN Day Virtually”— to help our campus partners make their events as successful as possible.

Each month, RAINN highlights a member of its National Leadership Council. The NLC is a group of dedicated individuals who have shown their commitment to RAINN’s mission of supporting survivors and ending sexual violence.

The event will feature inspiring performances from Broadway and beyond—including Kristin Chenoweth, Cheyenne Jackson, Jewel, Leslie Odom Jr., Kelli O’Hara, Ashley Park, Billy Porter, and Vanessa Williams—with special appearances from singer-songwriter Tori Amos, actress Annaleigh Ashford, actress Connie Britton, and others. Voices for RAINN will be held live on Monday, December 7 at 8 p.m. ET on Facebook and YouTube.

This holiday season, when it’s harder to be together, show your loved ones you care with a gift that gives back. RAINN partners with organizations and entrepreneurs dedicated to supporting survivors of sexual violence to offer beautifully curated gifts that will also make a difference in the lives of survivors.
