On February 13, 2008, FP was sexually assaulted and brutally attacked after being drugged at her college food hall. When she woke up several hours later and realized what happened, she tried to take her own life. In this episode, FP shares how this traumatic experience along with years of emotional neglect and victim shaming actually inspired her to become a criminologist and suicidologist. As the Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice at Cal State, Los Angeles, FP is working to build a community around suicide prevention, education and intervention to help destigmatize a very isolating human experience. @withoutasafetynet
