Letter to the Editor 4.27.2010

It is with great appreciation that the Peer Educators of The Haven Project and Health AWAREness recognize all of the volunteers and organizations that helped make Take Back the Night, 2010 a record-breaking success! We believe nearly 600 people took part in the fight against sexual violence in our community.

There are many myths surrounding victimization: young and old, MEN and WOMEN, rich and poor are all affected by sexual violence. It is the goal of The Haven Project through events such as Take Back the Night to dispel such myths and raise awareness on the IUP campus and in the Indiana community.

Thank you to the many student organizations who signed up to volunteer, spread the word, carry signs, set up and tear down, and countless others who volunteered in various other ways. Thank you also to Lowe’s, ARAMARK, BACCHUS and the Co-op store for their support of Take Back the Night, 2010!

We at The Haven Project are so very grateful for the participation of everyone who made this event possible!
