Mark your calendar for The University of Arizona’s Take Back the Night! Take Back the Night is an international movement to raise awareness and speak out against sexual violence. Our goal is to create a campus community that is safe and inclusive for all members. The event includes a march through campus, a resource fair, music, poetry, survivor speak-outs and anti-violence speakers from the UA community.

The solidarity march begins at 6 p.m. at the parking lot of the Martin Luther King Jr. Student Center and concludes at the Women’s Plaza of Honor around 7 p.m. The resource fair starts at 7 p.m. while speakers, poets and artists take to the stage at 7:15 p.m. A survivor speak-out begins at 8 p.m. with an ongoing candlelight vigil, and the evening concludes with a call for UA community members to end sexual violence.

Take Back the Night is co-sponsored by the Residence Hall Association, the Commission on the Status of Women, Women's Resource Center, Oasis Program for Sexual Assault and Relationship Violence, UA Men Against Violence, Social Justice League, Student Health Advisory Committee, the National Pan-Hellenic Council, the Interfraternity Council and more.
