Our 13th Annual Advocacy Day will be held in person at the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus, Ohio on April 3rd, 2025. This is an amazing opportunity to build community, take action, and communicate directly with lawmakers to elevate the voices of survivors and sexual violence prevention.
Note: Advocacy Day registration is now closed. If you would like to attend the morning event, please email Emily at egemar@oaesv.org.
OAESV’s Advocacy Day is a free event. We encourage survivors, advocates, educators, students, legislators, and anyone else who shares our vision of an Ohio free from sexual violence to register today!
