VOICE, Georgia Tech's sexual violence prevention and response initiative, invites the entire Georgia Tech community to participate in our second annual Teal Ribbon Day as a show of support for survivors in our community and a dedication to preventing sexual violence.

Georgia Tech Faculty and Staff will receive a teal ribbon sticker via campus mail in the second week of April. Students and organizations can request ribbons by emailing voice@gatech.edu. On April 15, wear your ribbon, then take a photo of you and your friends or colleagues and send it to voice@gatech.edu.

We will then share your photos on the Health Promotion Facebook page (facebook.com/BuzzOnHealthGT). We encourage you to provide a statement of "why you wear teal" that we can use to caption your photo.

VOICE will also be tabling from 10:30am-2pm (on Tech Walkway or in the Student Center, depending on weather) - stop by to chat with us, pick up SAAM swag, and take a photo!
