What Is Sexual Abuse?

Sexual abuse can take many forms and encompasses any behavior that forces or coerces someone into sexual activity they aren't comfortable with. It can also refer to any form of behavior that impacts a person's ability to control their sexual activity. This might include instances of rape or abuse, as well as more subtle forms of sexual coercion such as withholding birth control or condoms.

Examples of sexual abuse can include:

  • Unwanted kissing and/or touching
  • Unwanted sexual activity
  • Sexual contact while drunk, drugged, or unconscious and unable to give consent
  • Threatening or coercing into unwanted sexual activity

Sexual abuse is a serious and criminal offense that can be committed by anyone, including those close to you, such as a significant other, family member, friend, or even a teacher. If someone is taking advantage of you, making you do or participate in things without your consent or willingness, it is important to know that you have legal options for seeking relief.

Sexual abuse is never your fault, and you have the right to seek justice and accountability for the harm caused to you.
