Reaching out can feel like the hardest step- especially when you don’t know what to expect.

Appointments with CARE always centered on your needs. You’ll never be required to report, disclose more than you’re comfortable sharing, or make immediate decisions. Instead, our confidential advocates will move at your pace and support you with the next steps that feel right.

Denim Day is in TWO days, but do you know why DENIM is used to raise awareness against sexual assault?

From a harmful court ruling to a global movement, Denim Day exists because survivors were blamed instead of supported. No matter what somebody wears, consent can only be present when it is unambiguous, affirmative, and everyone is conscious and aware at each step of the process. We wear denim to challenge harmful narratives and demonstrate to survivors that we care.

Stop by our Denim Day tabling this Wednesday to connect with resources and be part of the conversation!

Denim Day is a global call to challenge victim-blaming and support survivors of sexual assault. This year, we’re inviting the UCSB community to wear denim with a purpose, support survivors, and be part of the active bystander movement.

Join us at the Denim Day Tabling Fair to connect with campus & Isla Vista orgs, learn about ways we support survivors, and get involved in prevention work. We’ll have fun educational activities, face painting, screen printing, goodie bags, free swag, and yes… ways to earn some treats + deals at participating restaurants in IV 👀

Wear denim, bring a friend, and be part of the community 💙
