Vital Voices Radio Podcast

After survivor and activist Amanda Nguyen learned her rape kit could be destroyed even if the statute of limitations on her case hadn’t yet been reached, she took action. That action led her to create RISE – an organization dedicated to helping ordinary citizens pen their own rights into laws. She joined the podcast to reflect on her journey, some of the most impactful laws they’ve passed, and how they’re gamifying the lawmaking process to get more people involved. Tune in to hear her talk about the resources RISE is providing survivors as gender-based violence increases during COVID-19.   To learn more about RISEU’s Survivor Safe Haven or to provide flyers in your business or organization, visit https://www.risenow.us/covid   To learn more about Vital Voices, visit www.vitalvoices.org.  Invest in women, improve the world.   Executive Producer: Lizzie Kubo Kirschenbaum.  Editor and Assistant Producer: Christi Owiye.  Host: Alyse Nelson.  Music:  Deliberate Thought by Kevin MacLeod.  Deliberate Thought by Kevi
