Educational posters will be set up around the quad with sexual assault statistics, supportive information, LGBTQ awareness, and allyship. A donation drawing to help PRISM raise funds for Oasis of Peace, a Family Crisis shelter supporting women and victims of sex trafficking, will be held.
PRISM will have a free rock painting booth and will be selling pride flags and stickers. Individuals can stop by the PRISM booth and enter for a free chance to win several prizes:
