Our event raises awareness about sexual violence and give survivors a voice and a chance to celebrate their healing journey.  It provides a platform for local organizations to share information about their resources and for advocates and supporters to come together with survivors to show their support.  We hold the rally and march on the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor in the month of April to recognize Sexual Assault Awareness Month.  This event is put on by University Students Against Rape, a volunteer student organization and STARS, a non-profit organization.

STARS’s purpose is to raise awareness and educate the public about sexual violence. This includes raising awareness about the effects and prevalence of sexual violence. Its focus is also to provide information for victims of this crime so that they can get help and explore ways to prevent sexual violence.  Our highest priority is to let survivors know there is help out there, they are not alone and to help them celebrate healing.  We work hand in hand with University Students Against Rape, a student organization on the campus of the University of Michigan to put on the annual Take Back the Night Ann Arbor and other events through the year to continue our mission.
