TRIGGER WARNING: Sexual Assault

At Callisto, they believe that survivors should be recognized as autonomous agents over their action and given a world of options to choose from. Callisto created a repeat perpetrator detection system that allows individuals who have experienced sexual assault to securely create an encrypted entry of their incident into their matching system. We also discuss the changing landscape of sexual assault activism and advocacy as a result of the pandemic and our newfound reliance on technology and social media to educate others and support survivors.
