October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Got sole? On October 13, join us at the beach to show your support for survivors in our community, at the 11th annual Walk a Mile in My Shoes event.

This year’s theme was inspired by a survivor who walked 11 miles in flip-flops from our shelter to the beach to attend our walk. She said she couldn’t believe the support of the community and wanted to see it for herself. She wanted to walk the whole way – it was a journey she needed to take as part of her healing process.

The Walk is a celebration of that journey, with a one-mile walk to honor and support survivors as they take the next step toward a life free from violence. With a DJ, photo booth, raffles, prizes and more, the Walk is a fun-filled, family-friendly event.
