In 2005, the planning committee for Georgias Sexual Assault Awareness Month created a statewide poster contest in which college art students from all over the state were invited to submit images and art reflecting the story and message behind the Jeans for Justice story. The winners were design team Tenicia Hallums and Diana Racitti from Kennesaw State University. The team was honored at GNESAs statewide press conference at the Georgia state capitol and was present at the proclamation signing with
governor Sonny Perdue.

The winning posters were then mass produced and distributed to rape crisis centers around the state where they were distributed to businesses who participated in Jeans for Justice Day. Realizing that these creations were more than art but a centerpiece for discussions around many of the issues surrounding sexual assault in our culture, GNESA has decided to host the contest annually and open submissions to a nationwide level as a means to seek out the creativity of young activists and artists to showcase their skill and awareness of sexual assault issues in their community.
