and abuse against young women and girls. The numbers
are horrific: 1 in 4 becomes a sexual assault victim, 1 in 3
face dating abuse, and too many encounter random
violence, date rape drugs, hate crimes, or traffickers. We
believe every girl has the right to live a life free of fear,
abuse, or violence and we're fighting back.
Since 2006 Just Yell Fire has grown into a 1.5 million girl
revolution across 64 countries as we empower girls to
know their rights, to stand up for themselves, to be
aware of dangers they face, and to escape violence
when trouble finds them. Ladies, watch our free films,
learn to be safe and be part of our revolution; then tell
your friends and your school to join us too. You have
the right to live the life you want on your own terms.
Stay safe.
