2025 Champions of Change

The Champions of Change awards recognize and celebrate individuals who have gone above and beyond in their efforts to combat sexual assault, raise awareness, provide crucial resources, and promote a society free from the stigma and trauma associated with this pervasive issue. STAR is also excited to announce two journalists for exemplary reporting on sexual violence in print and broadcast. We believe their work has played a crucial role in raising awareness and fostering conversations about this important issue.

Champions of Change awardees will be honored at STAR’s annual gala in Metairie at the Balcony Ballroom on November 20, 2025 at 6:00 pm. Click here to view more information on sponsorship opportunities. To purchase tickets, click here.
