Come support survivors of sexual and interpersonal violence at Take Back the Night! 

We will meet at 6 p.m. at the Monarch and march down to 25th street. We will meet back at the Monarch where we invite our community to speak out and support victims/survivors.  

Shuttle Service From Wildcat Village & University Village

Since the 1960’s, Take Back the Night has empowered and supported survivors/victims, helped those in pain, and asserted that it is unacceptable for people to live in fear for their safety. Take Back the Night rallies, marches, candlelight vigils, and speak-outs are the means by which we show our solidarity. We invite you to join the movement to end and raise awareness to, sexual and interpersonal violence and demonstrate support for survivors and victims on our campus and in our community.
