The Wyoming BE THE SOLUTION campaign was developed by the Wyoming Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault to raise awareness that sexual violence is perpetrated in Wyoming, but there is something we can do to prevent it from happening in the first place.  The BE THE SOLUTION brand was adopted from the Washington Coalition of Sexual Assault Programs (WCSAP), and further messaging to "Learn About It.  Talk About It. Change It." was implemented to engage the population of Wyoming in a cyclical learning and action process to continually learn about sexual violence and prevention, while also asking Wyomingites to take action to change unhealthy norms that permit sexual violence, and, in time, prevent it. In May and June of 2023, The Wyoming Coalition updated the Be The Solution website to include resources for domestic violence and stalking.
