Walk a Mile in Her Shoes

Hello again!!

On Saturday April 9th at 10AM-11:30 AM at Orem City Center and State Street there will be a mile walk put on by The Center for Women and Children in Crisis: "Walk a Mile in her Shoes". You'll get to walk a mile in high heels to raise awareness for rape and sexual assault. Men are also invited to wear women's shoes and literally walk a mile in her shoes. All proceeds will go to The Center for Women and Children in Crisis.

I am grateful to be able to help out at this event. Rape and sexual assault is unfortunately becoming more prevalent in our society, and it's crucial that we bring awareness to this issue.

If YOU need to Escape an Abusive Man read the following from their website:
"Women! Has a man in your life ever: Hit you? Pushed you around? Called you names, such as crazy, stupid, ugly, nagging, etc? Stopped you from seeing your friends or leaving the house? Forced you to have sex when you did not want to? Done things to frighten you? Threatened you? You do not deserve to be treated this way! Please call 801-377-5500 (Domestic Violence Hotline) or 801-356-2511 (Rape Crisis Hotline)."
