Xinyi He, a second year UNMA student, started her internship at Stop Sexual Assault in Schools (SSAIS) in Spring of 2021. She works on several sexual assault issues involving Asian American students. Xinyi translated from English into Chinese the SSAIS Fact sheet “Know What to Do if Sexually Assaulted,” toolkits page, and other SSAIS videos. She also created original public service announcement presentations for Asian parents and students. Moreover, Xinyi is involved in research and writing articles about how the Asian American communities deal with sexual harassment and assault, and how they can be educated and informed when dealing with such cases while protecting traditional Asian values. With her academic focus on gender equality and human rights, Xinyi is very proud to contribute to spreading awareness among Asian American communities about how we, as individuals and community, can do our part in stopping sexual harassment and assault in schools.
