“I wear denim today to support my daughter, and others who have been sexually assaulted. I wear denim today to raise awareness of the trauma that results from sexual abuse. I wear denim to demand that we all do better when supporting survivors. I wear denim to let assailants know that I will not tolerate their behaviors or excuses.”
“I will wear denim to support those whose voices weren't heard so that I can help give them their voice back by bringing awareness. My social fashion statement will show my students that I am ally and willing to learn more and educate others and violence prevention.”
“I first publicly identified myself as a rape survivor on the very first Denim Day in LA. It was scary, but it changed my life to release this secret and know I wasn’t alone! Very proud of POV’s work, and I hope by continuing to support Denim Day to help others get the same benefit.”
“To stand in solidarity with survivors, to spread awareness about sexual assault. Even if it is one person at a time, I WILL make a change in the way our societies treat victims of sexual violence.”
