Seminole State College is hosting an exhibit by the Citizen Potawatomi Nation House of Hope this week in Tanner Hall. The display features clothing based on survivors’ descriptions of what they were wearing during an assault and challenges the myth that wardrobe choices contribute to sexual violence. The CPN House of Hope is a program based in Shawnee dedicated to eliminating domestic violence by providing free and confidential assistance to individuals experiencing intimate partner violence, sexual assault and stalking.
