Why we Wear Teal
In 2000, sexual violence coalitions across the country voted to designate the color teal as the official color of Sexual Assault Awareness month and the teal ribbon was adopted as a symbol of awareness and prevention. Teal is associated with trust, devotions, and healing. How can you participate?
- Wear it! Outfit and accessorize yourself with teal on April 5 to raise awareness about sexual assault.
- Tell people why you are wearing teal and ask them to join anti-violence efforts
- Post it on social media – #wewearteal
