Walk a Mile In Her Shoes
Each April, Blackburn Center hosts our signature event, Walk a Mile in Her Shoes®️. The goal of the Walk is to raise awareness about gender-based violence in our community. The Walk is a call to action to our community, and a way to raise much-needed funds to support our mission.
Our 2026 Walk took place on April 18, 2026. You can see pictures from the event here.
