Awareness Campaign

​​​​​​​​​​In 2019, the City of Phoenix launched a Sexual Violence Awareness campaign called "Let's Talk Teal." In addition to activities that directly impact survivors of sexual violence, the​​ initiative emphasizes having important conversations to prevent and end sexual violence.

The City of Phoenix's partnership with the Arizona Coalition to End Sexual and Domestic Violence​ and the Sexual Assault Kit Initiative administered by the Bureau of Justice Assistance seeks to raise public awareness about Sexual Violence and to educate communities on how to prevent it. ​

The video and the exhibit featured take aim at victim shaming and blaming with survivor stories and a representation of what they were wearing.
