Who we are

Sexual harassment and assault are urgent issues at UCLA.

Offenders often enjoy greater protection than survivors of assault. Many survivors feel they cannot speak out for fear of retaliation; often, their ability to finish their degree or perform their job is severely compromised.

BASH, a group of UCLA students, seeks to curtail the culture of silence around campus sexual assaults and to promote a safe and empowering work and study environment for all members of the campus community – students, staff and faculty. As sexual crimes are about power, and not sex, the best way to combat them is to create a more democratic and transparent campus environment. See our platform for BASH’s demands and goals.
