About Take Back the Night

Take Back the Night is an international event that has the primary goal of ending sexual assault in all forms. The earliest Take Back the Night events took place in the United States during the late seventies. Hundreds of events are held in over thirty countries annually. To this day, Take Back the Night events are recognized and hailed for being safe spaces for anyone who has experienced, been affected by, or wants to end sexual assault. Take Back the Night events held at the University of Virginia will be taking place during the week of April 17 , 2017. Join us to take a stand and help end sexual violence.
