Sexual violence is not just a personal tragedy. It Sexual violence is not just a personal tragedy. It’s a public cost we all bear. 📊 The numbers are staggering: - $122,461 = the lifetime cost per survivor (medical care, justice system, lost productivity). - $3.1 trillion = the total U.S. cost for all survivors. - Survivors lose $5K–$15K in wages each year due to trauma. - 70% of survivors never receive the mental health support they need. Behind every statistic is a life forever changed. 👉 One Brave Thing you can do today: Commit to funding prevention and support. Even a small monthly gift helps close the gap for survivors who deserve recovery and hope. 🔗 www.BraveStep.org/Donate #OneBraveThing #PreventionMatters #TheTrueCost #InvestInPrevention #CommunitiesMatter
