Reflecting on this year of violence prevention with kNOwMore! From Teal Tuesday and Take Back the Night to You+Me+We, Green Dot, and Purple Thursday, we've spent a lot of time working to end power-based personal violence together! Here's a snapshot at 2023 and what we've done to support survivors, create a trauma-informed campus, and challenge the social norms.

If you've swung by CHAW this semester, you might have noticed some awesome changes, like our brand-new furniture and a super comfy massage chair. 🛋️🌟 While we're more than happy to have our amazing faculty and staff hang out in the living room, we kindly ask that the massage chair be reserved for student use only. 😊 Don't worry, we make sure to thoroughly clean the massage chair after each use for your comfort and safety. ✨💆‍♀️💆‍♂️ Book your time slot by visiting calendly.com/fsuchaw and get ready to relax! 📅💤💖 Oh, by the way, a huge shout-out to SGA Sweepings for making this transformation possible over the summer of 2022. 🙌💚
