If ever there was a guidebook to keeping your teenage daughter safe from sexual violence, this would be the one. In "Get Savvy," Kathleen Buckstaff explores the realities of sexual behavior and sexual assault in teenage culture, along with specific strategies for confronting dangerous patterns and preventing assault.
Woven throughout "Get Savvy" are insights and words of wisdom that Buckstaff gathered from over 63 interviews with college students, recent grads and professionals who shed light on sex, dating, rape, resistance and self-care.
Her goal in sharing these stories of horror and healing is to break open the discussion on sexual assault so that girls and women have words to identify it, avoid it, heal from it, talk about it, and hear practical advice on how to thrive in the world.
