Want To Meet the Cast of Sweet/Vicious? Donate to RAINN

RAINN’s longtime entertainment partner, MTV, is surprising viewers across the country with their new series, Sweet/Vicious. The series addresses campus sexual violence by tapping into a surprising medium: comedy.

MTV sought RAINN’s support in developing a storyline that balanced humor with important lessons about consent, bystander intervention, and recovery. “It’s surprising to see a show use humor to take on important concepts like consent and bystander intervention, and that’s exactly what this writing team has achieved,” said Jodi Omear, RAINN’s vice president of communications.

Now, Sweet/Vicious wants to give back. MTV recently announced a Viewing Party Contest that will raise funds for RAINN’s National Sexual Assault Hotline and engage young viewers in conversations about consent. The winner of the contest can invite up to 15 friends to a personal Sweet/Vicious viewing party with stars Eliza Bennett and Taylor Dearden.
