Today is #weartealday! 🩵 Teal is the official color of sexual assault awareness. We are wearing teal to represent hope, courage, and a commitment to ending sexual violence. #saam2026 #supportsurvivors
What Emily, our Forensic Nursing Director, wishes everyone understood: Sexual assault is often committed by someone the victim knows, and many survivors don`t report due to fear, stigma, or not being believed.
This month, and every month, we encourage you to listen, believe, and stand with survivors.
A major step forward for survivors 💙
Thanks to the leadership of Karen Lupton and Esther Panitch, HB 1283 expands support by creating a Family Justice Center and extending evidence kit retention to 10 years, giving survivors more time, choice, and control in deciding their path to justice.
April group therapy! Please reach out if you have questions. We look forward to healing with you!
Sexual Assault Awareness Month is a time to come together, listen, and take action. We stand with survivors, honor their strength, and commit to creating a culture rooted in respect, consent, and accountability. Real change begins when we choose to speak up, believe survivors, and support one another. 💙
