New York Governor Andrew Cuomo kicked off the Enough is Enough awareness campaign to highlight the State’s new law to fight sexual violence on college campuses, which takes effect this semester.
The Governor also announced that the State Police’s new Sexual Assault Victims Unit is now open to provide investigative support and assistance to victims of sexual violence, as well as training and law enforcement aid for schools and local police departments statewide in line with the new law.
As part of the campaign, Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul and Special Advisor Christine Quinn will be visiting campuses statewide to meet with students, faculty and staff and discuss the new law, and distribute informational cards that promote facts about the initiative, as well as students’ rights and protections under the law.
