LAKEPORT, Calif. – Awareness about sexual assault on college campuses in the United States is increasing.

Reports indicate that as many as one in five women will be sexually assaulted in college.

To educate about the often unreported or inadequately investigated crimes, the Emmy award-nominated documentary film, “The Hunting Ground,” investigates and shares difficult stories of undergraduate rape survivors.

The Lake Family Resource Center Rape Crisis Center is sponsoring a free screening of this groundbreaking film at the Mendocino College Lake Center at 2565 Parallel Drive, Lakeport, on Monday, April 17, at 6 p.m.

Mendocino College Lake Center is proud to host a showing of this film on such an important issue during April, Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

All members of the community are welcome at the screening, but please be aware that the film addresses mature themes.
