Rape/sexual assault is illegal sexual contact (usually involving force) done upon a person without consent. Rape is also defined as sexual contact inflicted upon a person who is incapable of giving consent, due to either diminished physical or mental capacity.
It is important to realize that one does not have to have physically fought off or said “no” for an act to be regarded as sexual assault. Submission does not equal consent. Sexual coercion and assault within an intimate relationship may take many forms.
Here are some examples:
Safety plans can help you prepare for a crisis.
Emergency shelters provide safe, temporary housing.
Transportation options to get you to safety.
Financial support can help you regain control.
