Dine out for Safety

Wed, Apr 16, 20257:00 AM – 11:00 PM MST

Dine Out & Make a Difference. Meet your friends and family at one (or more!) local participating restaurants on April 16, 2025 and proceeds from your meal will be donated to the Southern Arizona Center Against Sexual Assault to directly support survivors of sexual violence.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and here at SACASA, we support and empower those impacted by sexual trauma by providing advocacy, therapy, medical forensic evaluation and recovery services while promoting awareness and prevention of sexual violence. You can make a difference for people living in southern Arizona who are impacted.
