Opportunities

Project Unbreakable is an initiative that involves photographing survivors of sexual assault holding a poster with a quote from their attacker. This project hopes to give a voice to survivors of sexual assault, and allow them to use these harmful words to speak out against  violence.  For more information and to participate in this project, please fill out the anonymous qualtrics survey: https://tcnj.qualtrics.com//SE/?SID=SV_egF12mtFymgVruJ
