Approximately one in four college aged women is date raped or experiences an attempted date rape during her college years.¹ But women aren’t the only victims of date rape.
Unfortunately most information you will find on the internet about date rape is written with the assumption that the woman is always the victim. This is simply not true. Both women and men rape and both women and men can be victims of rape.
Here are some tips for every person that will help prevent a date rape from occurring:
ACPC Women’s Clinic has developed a new and innovative way to protect Pueblo area women from date rape.
In just a few short months Assure Me dispensers will be available in area Bars/Night Clubs, Fitness Centers, Restaurants, Rest Areas, Convenience Stores, and College Campuses. The dispensers will provide Date Rape Detection Strips at a low cost.
Assure Me dispensers will allow women to easily and confidentially purchase the products they need, when they need them with a simple swipe of their card. A 24-hour hotline number is printed on the box to connect them with a ACPC Women’s Clinic for follow up care.
