  • Tech ASPIRES kicks off April as Sexual Assault Awareness Month with Teal Ribbons

    Tech ASPIRES kicks off April as Sexual Assault Awareness Month with Teal Ribbons

    Tech ASPIRES brings awareness to campus by hanging teal ribbons on Tech’s campus this week. April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. In 2000, sexual violence coalitions voted to designate the color teal to represent Sexual Assault Awareness Month. The teal ribbon was then adopted as a symbol of awareness and prevention. In addition, the color teal is associated with feelings of trust, devotion, and healing.

    ASPIRES is a federally funded grant program at Tech that addresses sexual assault on Tech’s campus by providing free forensic exams by specially trained registered nurses and comprehensive advocacy services from trained victim advocates. ASPIRES’s vision is a violence-free campus community where victims & survivors of interpersonal trauma feel safe and supported in their healing journey to be empowered to live their healthiest lives.
