4.24.19 Denim Day Rally & Press Conference
Twenty years ago, we began our Denim Day campaign right here in the City of Angels. Since then, Denim Day has reached millions around the globe, becoming the longest running sexual violence prevention and education campaign worldwide.
Join us on April 24th as we kick off our 20th annual Denim Day Rally and Press Conference!
We'll be joined by local leadership, survivors, advocates & friends to recognize this historic event. Don't forget to wear jeans with a purpose to spread the message that there is no excuse and never an invitation to harass, abuse, assault, or rape.
Enjoy complimentary morning coffee with Peace Over Violence as we kick off Denim Day!
