 You Are Not Alone!

 Welcome!

We are RISE [Rape Incest & Suicide Education]. Our mission is to raise awareness about these tragic epidemics, and to help the people who are going through them. These are heartbreakingly frequent occurances, stealing the pride, self-esteem, sanity, life and soul of thousands every year. Victims and survivors of these three epidemics may be young or old, male or female, and of any social class or location.

Every 2 minutes, someone in America reports a rape. That's just in America, and that's just reported cases. SIXTY PERCENT of rapes are not reported. Those rapists never spend a day in jail. Only SIX PERCENT ever will. If a rape IS reported, there is only a FIFTY PERCENT chance of arrest. Fifteen of sixteen rapists walk free... Rape is a crime, whether the person committing it is a stranger, a date, an acquaintance, or a family member. People who have been raped need care, comfort, and a way to heal.

 National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-HOPE

ONE IN THREE females are sexually abused by the time they turn eighteen. In 1995, over 126,000 CHILDRREN were victims of sexual abuse. SEVENTY-FIVE PERCENT of those children were girls, THIRTY PERCENT of them between the ages of FOUR and SEVEN. EVERY 10 SECONDS a child is reported being abused, molested, or KILLED. Many of these victims are EIGHT years old or YOUNGER. An estimated FIFTY PERCENT of child sexual offenders are the parents.

 National Child Abuse Hotline: 1-800-422-4453

In America alone, a woman takes her own life EVERY NINETY MINUTES. An attempt at suicide is estimated to be made ONCE EVERY MINUTE. There are four male suicides for every female suicide, but twice as many females as males attempt suicide. Every day, approximately EIGHTY Americans take their own life, and 1,500 more attempt to do so. Among young people aged 10-14 years, the suicide rate has DOUBLED in the last two decades.

 National Suicide Hotline: 1-800-SUICIDE

Survivors of sexual assault are four times more likely to commit suicide.
