The Clothesline Project Temporarily Displayed at UNH

By Aubrey Benoit · Thursday, April 22, 2021

[DURHAM, NH]-- Since 1990, the Clothesline Project has brought awareness to the issue of violence against men, women and children. For those who have been affected by violence, the Clothesline Project allows them to express their emotions on a t-shirt. To raise awareness of sexual assault, sexual harassment and domestic violence, the Sexual Harassment & Rape Prevention Program (SHARPP) at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) dedicated a couple days to their own Clothesline Project. Between social media, coordination and strength from survivors in Durham, this project was able to raise awareness to some of the most impactful issues within society.

Jeb Bradley, the author of the bill, SB 129, current restrictions prohibiting developing on land that might cause any harm to endangered species are holding up a large number of development projects.
