Same mission. New look.

We're excited to unveil EVAWI's brand-new logo!

Our old logo served us well and was at the forefront of our organization for over two decades. As our organization has continued to evolve, the EVAWI team decided it was time for a fresh look that better reflects the work we do.

In our new design, our acronym: EVAWI sits at the forefront of our organization. For years, professionals have referred to us as EVAWI, and our new logo celebrates that in a way that is readable and memorable.

You probably also notice there is an upward arrow in the letter A, and that was intentional. We wanted a symbol that encompasses the true nature of what this work is all about: Progress, empowerment, moving forward, and positive outcomes.

We are so excited to share our new look with you as we continue to advance the response to sexual violence and other forms of interpersonal violence by equipping criminal justice professionals with the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to conduct effective, trauma-informed, victim-centered, and offender-focused investigations.
