I will never forget the first time I supported a survivor of sexual violence. It was less than a week into my job as an educator at Mount Sinai’s Sexual Assault and Intervention Program (SAVI). I was at a Halloween party dressed as a giant fried egg with sperm trying to break into the yolk. I was excitedly telling a number of acquaintances about my new position. I could see one woman, (who I believe was dressed as a seductive werewolf) react when I mentioned that I worked in sexual assault prevention.
