Troy Record: Samaritan Hospital Sexual Assault Program Expands With Troy Housing Authority Sites

The Sexual Assault and Crime Victims Assistance Program at Samaritan Hospital will host the 10th annual “Walk a Mile in Her Shoes” from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, April 29, at Riverfront Park in Troy.

The WAMC/NPR program “51%” is featuring St. Peter’s Crime Victim Services (SPCVS) in a two-part series on rape and sexual abuse. The series will air on more 80 public and community radio stations nationwide.

Historically, the conversation about rape and sexual assault has focused on the assault itself. The aftermath of sexual assault, however, can be equally difficult for survivors to navigate.
