Contact Portland Women's Crisis Line (PWCL) for event and ticket information.
Thursday, April 23, 2009 from 4:30 PM - 7:00 PM (PT)
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) and the Portland Women's Crisis Line (PWCL) is hosting Bike Back the Night. Last year, over 70 riders joined us on the streets of Portland to stand up against sexual violence.
As part of the annual event, riders will take to the streets to demonstrate their commitment to a world without sexual violence. The ride will end at Portland State University in time to join in and celebrate their campus Take Back the Night.
Check-in for BBTN will begin at 4:30pm and the ride will begin at 6pm sharp. Riders will get light snacks, a BBTN spoke card, water and information about what you can do to get involved with the movement to end domestic and sexual violence. PWCL is also hosting hygiene item drives all month long. Bring hygiene items like new underwear, socks, or personal hygiene products with you to the ride to donate to survivors of sexual violence.
For more information about other SAAM events during the month and to learn more about PWCL, please visit our website at www.pwcl.org.
THIS EVENT IS FREE. Registration is for PWCL records. You do not need to bring a ticket to this event. With questions about your registration please call Kelsey Pine in the PWCL business office at 503-232-9751 x107.

Founded in 1972, the Portland Women's Crisis Line (PWCL) was one of the first five sexual violence crisis lines in the United States. PWCL provides domestic and sexual violence services to the Tri-County area made up of Multnomah, Clackamas, and Washington counties, and its toll-free number can be called from anywhere in the state. PWCL is not just a social service agency; it is also a social change organization. We believe that domestic and sexual violence are widespread in our society. Our purpose is to not only empower those who experience violence, but also to end the oppressions and violence which causes them to seek out our services. 503.235.5333/888.235.5333 > Crisis Line 503.232.9751 > Business Office 503.234.3749 > Fax info@pwcl.org > E-mail www.pwcl.org > Website www.pwclblog.blogspot.com > PWCL Blog
