Survivor’s Vote!

June 20, 2024

NCCASA is excited to participate in the 2024 "Survivors Vote" campaign.  Born out of the Survivor's Agenda, "Survivors Vote" is a committment to ensure that survivors of sexual violence are heard and know that they are a powerful group of voters.

Who are Survivor Voters?

We are people who care about ending sexual violence and we are ready to harness our collective strength and power. By mobilizing against sexual violence, we can help protect, uplift, and contribute to the healing of our communities.

Our voices will be heard, our stories will not be ignored, and our votes will be counted. Being registered is the first critical step to making your voice heard this election.

THE COUNTRY NEEDS WHAT SURVIVORS HAVE TO OFFER!

And yet, survivors by and large are not seen as experts or go-to leaders for how to keep our communities safe and families thriving. Survivors are not currently viewed as a force that decision-makers have to answer to, nor are survivors seen as an organized community — which could not be further from the truth. In October 2017, the world shifted as millions raised their hands to say, “me too.” Nearly seven years later, we are still experiencing the ripple effects of that moment.

The Survivors’ Agenda Network is organizing survivors as a force for structural change. But to build the world we want, need and deserve, everyone must play their part. Sign your name to The #SurvivorsAgenda Pledge to support survivors and work towards an end to gender-based violence.
