White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault : ウィキペディア英語版 | White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault
The White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault was formed on January 22, 2014, after President Barack Obama directed the Office of the Vice President of the United States and the White House Council on Women and Girls to "strengthen and address compliance issues and provide institutions with additional tools to respond to and address rape and sexual assault."〔(Memorandum: Establishing White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault ), ''WhiteHouse.gov'', Washington, DC: The White House, 22 January 2014, Retrieved 10 June 2014.〕〔(A renewed call to action to end rape and sexual assault ), ''The White House Blog'' , Washington, DC: Valerie Jarrett, 22 January 2014, Retrieved 24 January 2014.〕〔(Obama admin: Freedom from sexual assault a basic human right ), ''MSNBC.com'', New York, NY: NBC Universal, 22 January 2014, Richinick, M., Retrieved 24 January 2014.〕 The Task Force is part of a wider federal move to bring awareness to sexual violence on American campuses, which also included the Office for Civil Rights release of a list of American higher education institutions with open Title IX sexual violence investigations and the It's On Us public awareness campaign. The co-chairs of the Task Force are Vice President Joe Biden and Senior Advisor to the President Valerie Jarrett.〔 ==Background and history==
While formed through an official government memorandum on January 22, 2014, the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault exists as part of a lineage of government interventions against sexual violence, notably the White House Council on Women and Girls formed in 2009 and the Violence Against Women Act first drafted by Biden when he was a senator in 1994.〔(Rape and sexual assault: A renewed call to action ), ''White House Council on Women and Girls'', Washington, DC: White House Council on Women and Girls & Office of the Vice President, January 2014, Retrieved 10 June 2014.〕 Simultaneously, activists within The New Campus Anti-Rape Movement have pushed for legislative changes in the ways the U.S. government enforces regulations, as demonstrated in the collaborations between nationally recognized activists and U.S. senators. Data published in a 2014 government report on sexual assault in American colleges and universities reflects the numbers and backgrounds of college students who have experienced sexual assault.
