Speak Up Women October Global Conference Produced by Jennifer S. Wilkov Awards New York State the Make A Difference Award for the Bipartisan Passing of the 2022 Adult Survivors Act
BROOKLYN, N.Y. - PrAtlas -- Jennifer S. Wilkov, multi #1 international best-selling award-winning author, founder, and CEO of Speak Up World LLC, (http://www.SpeakUpWomen.com), successfully produced the 2022 October Global Speak Up Women Conference virtually online on Saturday, October 29, 2022. Speakers and participants from thirteen states and the United Kingdom, Germany, and others engaged in virtual talks about the importance of speaking up in women's personal and professional relationships and for causes she cares about to create change where change is necessary.
The Make A Difference Award was presented at the end of the conference to recognize the great State of New York for its bipartisan efforts in the passing of the 2022 Adult Survivors Act that was signed into law by Governor Kathy Hochul on May 24, 2022. The Adult Survivors Act empowers survivors of sexual offenses that occurred when they were over the age of 18 to file suit regardless of when the abuse occurred. The law, which will go into effect on November 24, 2022, on Thanksgiving, six months after the law was signed, creates a one-year lookback period for survivors to sue and file claims regardless of the statute of limitations.
Upon signing the Adult Survivors Act on May 24, 2022, Governor Kathy Hochul said, "Today, we take an important step in empowering survivors across New York State to use their voices and hold their abusers accountable."
As the presenter of the Make A Difference Award during the 2022 October Speak Up Women Conference, Wilkov said, "For many survivors, it may take years to come to terms with the trauma of sexual assault and feel ready to seek justice and speak up against an abuser, while possibly experiencing fear of retaliation or shame, as one of our brave speakers shared during her talk entitled 'No More Silence.' With the bipartisan passing of the Adult Survivors Act, New York State is an inspiration for all states and women everywhere to provide women with the opportunity to use their voices to speak up about the violence they have experienced and seek the justice that has been too long denied them so they can live the lives they imagine. New York State is sending a clear message that perpetrators will be held accountable, why speaking up is important, and why the time to do it… is now."
