60% of sexual assaults are not reported to police. 97% of serial rapists will never spend a day in jail. Every 2 minutes, another American is sexually assaulted. We're hoping to change that. Through this app, we created a platform in which sexual assault victims can communicate with one another and are empowered to speak out. Upon entering the app, the user is prompted to enter the name of their sexual assailant. Users are specifically connected to one another when they were both assaulted by the same offender. Together, they know they are not alone in time of distress and can work together in their pursuit of justice. As of right now, the app is limited to connecting users to one another, but with more time, we are hoping to expand this to an expansive support group for these victims.
