Education doesn’t happen in isolation. It happen Education doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens in partnership.

This February, we’re recognizing the Color It Blue partners who make education and awareness possible — not just through visibility, but through belief in prevention, recovery and community responsibility.

What’s often not talked about:
Education-focused partnerships consistently reach people before they ever identify as survivors, loved ones or supporters.

Many first encounters with trauma-informed language happen in classrooms, workplaces and community spaces, long before someone ever reaches out for help.

Because of our Color It Blue partners:
• conversations about consent and boundaries happen earlier
• stigma is disrupted in everyday spaces
• survivors learn they are not alone, sometimes without ever saying a word

Awareness isn’t just about campaigns. It’s about creating conditions where silence is interrupted and support becomes visible.

As we move closer to April’s Color It Blue campaign, we’re grateful for the partners who understand that education is action and that courage often starts with learning.

💙 Thank you, @uwharriebank, @republic_services, @bootsetc, Complete Dentistry, @ameliesfrenchbakery, @roperconstructioncompany and @roperpt, for standing with allies, loved ones and survivors.

Silence is never neutral. Support can be life-chan Silence is never neutral.
Support can be life-changing.

This February, we’re naming the impact silence has on survivors and reminding our community that showing up matters. 💙

Courage grows in community. When friends, neighbo Courage grows in community.

When friends, neighbors, workplaces and faith spaces show up, survivors, loved ones and allies don’t walk alone.

This month, we’re celebrating the ways we can stand beside one another.
