İBasta Ya!

En EspañolIn English
“¡Basta Ya!” es una campaña cuyo objetivo es el de informar a la sociedad sobre la violencia sexual y ayudar a quienes han sido víctimas de la misma.

Pero, ¿qué es la violencia sexual? Violencia sexual ocurre cuando alguien, independientemente de su edad, sexo o género, se le obliga o se le presiona a realizar actos sexuales que no desea o es demasiado joven para consentirlo. Esto puede incluir actos tales como mostrar fotos inapropiadas a un menor de edad, tocar a alguien de forma inapropiada y/o violación.

¿Qué puede provocar la violencia sexual? La violencia sexual puede generar el hecho de sentirse muy triste (depresión), tener recuerdos aterradores (recuerdos intrusivos) o incluso el deseo de provocarse daño (automutilación). Las personas también pueden tener problemas para comer (trastornos alimentarios), para confiar en los demás o mantener relaciones sexuales íntimas, así como empezar a alejarse de los demás (aislamiento). Pueden sentir que no tienen gran valor (baja autoestima) o incluso pensar en acabar con su propia vida (pensamientos suicidas).

¿La violencia sexual es algo común? Por desgracia, sí. En Estados Unidos, aproximadamente cada 92 segundos una persona es agredida sexualmente. De acuerdo con el Departamento de Justicia, los latinos son el segundo grupo más afectado por este crimen.

¡Basta Ya! is a campaign that wants to make people aware of sexual violence and help those who have experienced it.

But what is sexual violence? It happens when someone, no matter their age or gender, is made to do sexual things they don’t want to do or are too young to agree to. This can include showing a child inappropriate pictures, touching someone in a wrong way, or even rape.

What can sexual violence cause? It can lead to things like feeling very sad (depression), having scary memories (flashbacks), or even wanting to hurt oneself (self-mutilation). People might also have trouble with eating (eating disorders), trusting others, being intimate sexually, or may begin staying away from people (isolation). They might feel like they’re not worth much (low self-esteem) or even think about ending their own lives (suicidal thoughts).

Is sexual violence common? Unfortunately, yes. In the United States, someone is sexually assaulted about every 92 seconds. According to the Department of Justice, Latinos are the second-largest group affected by this crime.
