The survey and day of action aim to track the prevalence and impact of street harassment on New Yorkers and could inform the city on what can and should be done about it.
Make your contribution now and help Gothamist thrive in 2023.New York City is gearing up for a citywide day of action against street harassment. Organizers and elected officials will gather at locations across all five boroughs on Wednesday to promote the city's recently launched public survey.
That's a pretty large group that you've mentioned. What street harassment are we talking about here? What are the actions? What are the words? The survey is really simple and accessible. And it just asks New Yorkers to talk about whether or not they've experienced verbal or physical street harassment on the streets of New York City and in other public spaces. We hope to gather this information so that we can inform both the Adams administration as well as the City Council about how New York City can best respond to street harassment.
I'm curious, are you looking at other places across the country or the world and see how they're dealing with street harassment in their communities?
