SECOND ANNUAL WALK A MILE IN HER SHOES™ MARCH and RALLY

Walk a Mile in Her Shoes™ is both a fundraiser and an effort to create awareness in the community as well as illustrate the importance of Men being involved in making positive change in this community. The first opportunity in this area for men to literally gather and “walk a mile in her shoes” showing their support to stop rape, gender violence, and sexual assault in the Northland. Men can choose to either wear women’s shoes, clothing, or simply wear a sash or carry a sign with sexual assault statistics. Women can also participate if they bring a male guest.

Carl Crawford, John Doberstein, and Assistant County Attorney Mark Rubin will speak about the importance of men being involved in the movement to end rape, sexual assault, and gender violence. Join us for refreshments to listen to these powerful speakers. All are welcome to attend!
