Event Description:

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. During this month, communities across the nation collectively come together to focus on the societal problem of sexual violence and its impacts. This year we have chosen to show our support for sexual assault victims and survivors by wearing denim on Denim Day and we ask that you join us! Denim Day began when the Italian supreme court overturned a rape conviction because the victim was wearing tight jeans she must have helped her rapist remove her jeans.To learn more visit this website: https://www.denimdayinfo.org/why-denim
