What Does Your Red Say?
A retired CATCH awareness campaign brought to schools, businesses, and community organizations from 2021-2023.
By asking that question, we prompted difficult conversations about our feelings. We distributed bags full of red ribbons and hearts and invited people to write messages of hope or compassion, hang them up, and then read what others shared or ask one another: What does your red say?
Heart and ribbon displays popped up in store windows, in school hallways, and in building lobbies.
We know it’s not always easy to talk about our feelings. But when we do, we better understand what we are experiencing and discover we are not alone.
Funding Partner
