About Walk a Mile: Put Yourself in Her Shoes™
Since 2001, individuals and their families around the world have joined award-winning Walk a Mile in Her Shoes®: The International Men's March to Stop Rape, Sexual Assault & Gender Violence. It is a fun opportunity to raise awareness in our community about the serious causes, effects, and remediations to sexualized violence.
Proceeds from the event will go directly to support STAR services. Each year, STAR provides crisis intervention, medical and court accompaniment and ongoing support services for individuals in our community who are impacted by sexual violence.
