Sexual Assault Awareness Month
Guest: Amanda Taylor DNP, ANP-BC, SANE-A, SANE-P
Director of Nursing, Shelby County Crime Victims Rape Crisis Center

Join me this week for a conversation about sexual assault with Dr. Amanda Taylor, Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN). April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and the theme this year is “Building Safe Online Spaces Together”. Dr. Taylor and I discuss the online environment and how cybersex can turn into unwanted in-person sexual assault. We talk about how predators use social media to engage children, how to help loved ones who may have been victims of sexual abuse or assault, and more.
