Denim Day 2018 Bronx March

Once again New Settlement’s Program for Girls & Young Women is collaborating with Bronx Lebanon Hospital to organize a Denim Day Bronx March, taking a stand against sexual assault and victim blaming. Participants and staff from multiple programs will join together with community members and march through the streets of our Mount Eden Neighborhood raising awareness about the importance of consent, and declaring the right of all people to safety. The march will step off from the corner of Mt. Eden and the Grand Concourse and wind through nearby streets, accumulating youth program participants along the way. The march will end at New Settlement Community Center, where an event from 5-6:30pm includes tabling, resources, performances and guest speakers. Adults and youth are welcome to attend – both with a program or on your own – join us and add your voice, calling for an end to sexual assault!
