ADVOCATE FOR YOUR CAUSE WITH TEAL AND PURPLE AWARENESS RIBBON PINS
Teal and purple awareness pins represent a powerful combination of causes, most notably suicide prevention, sexual assault awareness, and domestic violence advocacy, particularly when emotional trauma and mental health are interconnected. Teal and purple is the official color combination for many suicide prevention campaigns. It represents support for people living with suicidal thoughts, remembrance of lives lost to suicide, and awareness of mental health and help-seeking. It is used during National Suicide Prevention Week in September and World Suicide Prevention Day. This combination also reflects sexual assault and domestic violence. Combined, they often symbolize support for survivors of both emotional and physical abuse, and the intersectional advocacy for mental health, gender-based violence, and trauma healing. Please see our Teal and Purple Pin Causes tabs for more information on relevant causes.
THE PURPOSE OF AWARENESS PINS
Awareness pins serve several important functions:
Raising Awareness: They help to educate communities about various medical and social causes, and mental health issues.
Advocacy and Support: They symbolize support and dedication to a specific cause and the individuals affected by it.
Fundraising: In fundraising campaigns, they generate money for research and support services related to the cause they represent.
Honoring and Remembering: Honor survivors and remember those lost to a disease or cause by wearing an awareness pin.
AWARENESS PIN COLOR MEANINGS

WHAT IS ADVOCACY AND WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
Simply put, advocacy is the public support of a particular cause, policy, or position. Advocacy can take any number of forms, from raising awareness online to lobbying directly for change within government or other institutions.
No matter what form they take, advocacy campaigns allow individuals and organizations to spread the word about their mission. These efforts can be paired with fundraising, marketing and outreach, and community service.
WHAT IS DIGITAL ADVOCACY?
Digital advocacy encompasses all of the ways you get the word out about your cause online. Using social media, your website, mobile apps, and email, you can educate the world about your mission and inspire action.
Digital advocacy has become increasingly prevalent (and important) due to the efficiency and wide reach of the internet. You can get your cause in front of thousands of new potential supporters all through a few shares!
