Would you like to be a participating organization/business

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and we want to cultivate awareness about sexual consent!  With your help we will create colorful, creative chalk art messages throughout Jefferson County to start a dialogue about sexual assault, consent, and supporting survivors.  Would your business/organization be willing to be a participating location as part of our Art for Consent campaign though out the month of April?  This request includes:
  1. Dove House dropping off chalk at your location with directions and informational material.
  2. Dove House will list your business as a participating location on our website and instruct the public that they can pick up chalk there.
  3. If you allow it, people can make chalk art that reflect positive messages about consent in an area of pavement you approve.
