April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and our local sexual assault crisis center is turning the downtown teal.
Prairie Center Against Sexual Assault (PCASA) has launched their annual âWalk A Mile In Her Shoesâ campaign. The event, which is usually held on the streets of downtown will be held virtually for another year â participants can walk, raise funds and awareness all month long.
Teal ribbons went up late last week to remind residents of the importance of services like PCASA, whose offices have been closed to the public since the COVID-19 pandemic started.
