We invite you to save the date for Take Back the Night Week, a meaningful series of awareness and community-building events focused on ending interpersonal violence, including sexual assault, rape, child abuse, incest, domestic violence, and stalking.

This year's theme is "Shatter the Silence, Stop the Violence!"

Clothesline Project: October 24th, 1:00-4:00 pm in the Women's Center (a visual, interactive, awareness-building event in which different color shirts displayed on a clothesline signify different forms of abuse)
Community Take-Back: October 25th, 4:00-6:00 pm in the Women's Center Lounge (a social event with fun and healing activities including poster-making, screenprinting, yoga, and more; all are invited to theMCC to build community)
Take Back the Night March: October 27th, starting at 4:00 in front of Sherman with a march to Chandler Park downtown (marchers will then gather in the park to share space during creative performances and individuals sharing their stories of survival)

If you, an organization, or business is interested in becoming a sponsor and donating through Take Back the Night to WIRC, our community partner, you can sign up for sponsorship here.

If you or someone you know is interested in sharing a story of survival at the march, you can fill out this form to sign up.
