UC Clermont and YWCA Co-host Event for Sexual Assault Awareness Month and National Crimes Victims Week
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. In order to raise awareness, UC Clermont College is partnering with the YWCA of Greater Cincinnati to host a day-long awareness event on Thursday, April 14 on campus.
