First-Ever DC City Council Roundtable on Street Harassment

For years, our work at CASS has been empowered by the compelling stories you’ve shared through our blog. Your experiences have allowed us to illuminate the issue of street harassment as one that affects people from all backgrounds, gender expressions, and identities, in each and every ward of our city. And now that we’ve got the attention of city leaders, we need your help to ensure that the DC Council acts to end street harassment and assault. Have your voice heard: Sign up to attend and/or testify at the DC Council roundtable on street harassment. All volunteers will receive follow-up details as well as support for those new to testifying before the DC Council. Sign up here: http://bit.ly/DCSHroundtable The roundtable, hosted jointly by the Judiciary Committee and the Committee on Housing and Community Development, is scheduled for December 3, 2015 at 10 AM in Room 500 of the John A. Wilson Building (1350 Pennsylvania Ave, NW). We're working with awesome partners like Stop Street Harassment, Defend Yourself, DC Rape Crisis Center, WIN, the DC Coalition Against Domestic Violence, the Network for Victim Recovery DC, and more to coordinate a robust presence from community members.
