"Violence prevention is health equity" with Mo Lewis of NSVRC

Sexual violence is often viewed as a stand-alone problem in our society, but we know that the work of preventing it is inseparable from all forms of equity work. Mo Lewis, the Prevention Specialist at the National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC) explains why sexual violence prevention must change larger systems that continue to perpetuate oppression in all forms.
