A march happening Thursday night in Red Deer is taking aim at the issue of victim blaming with respect to sexual violence and assault.
‘Take Back the Night’ is an effort of RDC social work students who’ve been assigned to host an event which relates to social work practice in the community.
Co-organizer Heidi Coltman says sexual assault is all too common when it shouldn’t be.
“It’s even about while going through the justice system, and having interactions with police, interactions at the hospital, and how re-victimizing and humiliating it can be,” she says.
