rape is not your fault

Rape Is Not Your Fault from Rape Is Not Your Fault on Vimeo.

it was so exciting to see this project i've been working on with the city's sexual assault response team and the maryland coalition against sexual assault since july come to life in october. last june the baltimore sun prompted an investigation into the huge amount of rapes deemed unfounded by baltimore city police department. this campaign aims to reach out to all of the women who may have been ignored and connect them with the necessary resources and support. for more about the campaign, visit www.rapeisnotyourfault.com.

real food farm mobile market is real!

coming to a neighborhood near you (coldstream/homestead/montebello, darley park, belair-edison, south clifton park, 4x4, to name a few) full of fresh food! working with real food farm to develop their mobile markets was one of last year's center for design practice projects (http://www.micasocialdesign.com/real-food-farm/). it seems like forever ago that we were at this stage of the design process... so it's awesome to see everything actually come into fruition. and, word on the street, real food farm bumper stickers and totes are out and about as well.
