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 11th annual “Walk a Mile in Her Shoes” at 10 a.m. on Saturday, April 21, at Riverfront Park in Troy.

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.

Every two minutes, someone is sexually assaulted in our country. Lindsey Crusan from the Sexual Assault & Crime Victims Assistance Program talks with WNYT about an upcoming event designed to raise awareness and take a stand against sexual crimes.
