Voices of Solidarity Honoree Alex Prout

Vital Voices COO Alvin Allgood sits down with Alex Prout, one of our 2018 Voices of Solidarity honorees and chair of the Vital Voices Solidarity Council, to discuss Alex's work fighting gender-based violence, his experience advocating for his daughter, Chessy, and how men and boys can become allies in the fight against sexual assault. Alex is the father of Chessy Prout, author of the book I Have the Right To: A High School Survivor's Story of Sexual Assault, Justice, and Hope.  Please be advised, this podcast includes a discussion of sexual violence, and contains information about sexual assault which may be upsetting to some listeners. If you'd like to speak with a specialist about some of the sensitive issues covered today, please call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-4673 or visit www.rainn.org/get-help    Music Credit: On My Way Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
