Students at University of Alaska Anchorage are organizing a panel discussion this week to highlight the problem of domestic violence and sexual assault in Alaska. The conversation is part of the national “No More” campaign that uses a blue circle with a white dot in the middle as a symbol to increase awareness of the issue.
Student Coordinator Simona Gerdts told APRN’s Lori Townsend that leading up to the Wednesday discussion she issued her fellow students a challenge.
