Today is Denim day. Wearing denim for awareness…

Everyone is encouraged to wear jeans (or something denim) in support of survivors of sexual assault and raise awareness of sexual violence.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

One in 6 women have been sexually assaulted in their lifetime, as have 3% of men.

Each year, 60,000 children are victims of sexual abuse.
