April is recognized nationally as Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Women’s Haven is working with Stephens and Jefferson County to spread awareness! Paint the Town Teal will kick off the first week of April, which is focused on decorating both Stephens and Jefferson County in the color teal, the color of Sexual Assault Awareness. Women’s Haven will be decorating local businesses and light posts in both counties in honor of Sexual Assault Survivors and to promote Sexual Assault awareness and education. Women’s Haven encourages residents of Stephens and Jefferson County to get involved in spreading awareness by learning more about Sexual Assault Prevention and by participating in the Giving Envelope Fundraiser at Women’s Haven office in Duncan which will kick off April 1st. All proceeds from this fundraiser will be used to help victims of domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking. For more information regarding Sexual Assault Awareness Month or the services, support and education offered at Women’s Haven, call the 24-hour Crisis Line at 580-252-4357.
