DENIM DAY WITH NEW HORIZONS

Written by on April 19, 2019

New Horizons Shelter and Outreach Centers are asking  community members, elected officials, businesses and students to make a social statement with their fashion by WEARING JEANS ON THIS APRIL 24TH as a visible way to support survivors and oppose the misconceptions that surround sexual assault and victim blaming.

Want To Do More?
Participate by hosting a Denim Day fundraiser, supporting La Crosse and Trempealeau County Sexual Assault Awareness month Scholarship and Events.

Why Denim?
Denim Day started due to a ruling by the Italian Supreme Court where a rape conviction was overturned because the justices felt that since the victim was wearing tight jeans she must have helped her rapist remove her jeans, thereby implying consent.
