The Street Harassment Prevention Advisory Board (SHPAB) and its co-chairs, the Mayor's Office to End Domestic and Gender-Based Violence (ENDGBV) and the NYC Commission on Gender Equity (CGE), conducted a survey of members of the public to identify people and communities most at risk of and most impacted by street harassment. The survey, conducted online and in person in the fall of 2023, generated 3,736 responses.
