Rebecca Odor, MSW
Virginia Department of Health contracted with Virginia
Commonwealth University to complete a telephone survey of Virginians
to determine the prevalence of sexual violence in the state. A
facilitated discussion of the findings of this ground-breaking survey
will be presented. Highlights from the survey include:
In Virginia, 1:4 women and 1:8 men have been the victim of sexual
assault.
The majority of sexual assaults occurred when the victim was under 18
years of age.
Only 3% of victims phoned a hotline or went to a sexual assault
crisis center. Only 12% of female victims and 7% of male victims
reported the incident to law enforcement.
Rebecca Odor is the Director of Sexual Violence Prevention at
the Center for Injury and Violence Prevention in the Virginia
Department of Health. She is also a certified trainer in Suicide
Prevention. She received her Master of Social Work degree from
Virginia Commonwealth University.
