Teal Ribbon Campaign
Get a ribbon @ tables throughout the month.
The goal of SAAM is to raise awareness about sexual violence and to educate communities and individuals on how to prevent sexual violence. In addition to the demonstration of support for victims and advocates, the display of teal ribbons in a community conveys a powerful message that there’s no place for assault in homes, neighborhoods, schools, or workplaces.

An International day of solidarity and protest- wear denim today to support believing survivors.
Since 1999, people have been wearing jeans one Wednesday in April as a symbol of protest against erroneous and destructive attitudes and myths surrounding sexual assault. Join us on Wednesday, April 25 to learn the story of Denim Day, support survivors, and raise awareness about sexual violence. There will be a photo booth, snacks, and more – don’t forget to wear denim!
