Seguin stands up for survivors Community gathers for Denim Day Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) -- A solid mix of messages were shared from the Central Park Gazebo this past Wednesday as community members, advocates, and law enforcement leaders gathered for the 2026 Denim Day event. “Stand up for survivors” and “recognize that real change does not happen in isolation,” were among the messages heard at the event hosted by Thriving Hearts Crisis Center. The annual awareness event, held in recognition of Sexual Assault Awareness Month helped raise awareness about sexual violence and the support that is available to those in Seguin and Guadalupe County. Participants took part in a symbolic walk around the park, visited
resource booths, and heard from community leaders and advocates working on the front lines. Among those voices was Jana Evans, executive director of the Thriving Hearts Crisis Center. Evans emphasized that the issue of sexual violence is closer to home than many realize. “It’s real and that it’s here no matter what community you are in, none of us are immune to it. We could say that like, oh, well, I don’t know anybody or it’s not happening, but it’s happening, it’s here. And that’s the reason why before Thriving Hearts Crisis Center, we were Guadalupe Valley Family Violence Shelter. And it was established back in 1983 because of the need. Denim, pg. 3
