Sexual Assault Awareness Month

Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) is an annual campaign observed in April to help raise awareness about sexual assault and educate the public on how to prevent sexual violence.  The goal of SAAM is to highlight sexual violence as public health, human rights, and social justice issue.  

The Teal Ribbon is the symbol of sexual assault and awareness and prevention. 

Denim Day was created in response to an Italian Supreme Court case in which a rape conviction was overruled because the victim’s tight jeans implied consent. 

The Student Counseling Center, Title IX, and Student Organizations participate in Denim Day on Wednesday, April 27th, from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm in the CAB Court Yard.  Tabling events and activities will focus on awareness, education, and prevention of Sexual Assault.
