Story
The 16th Annual Steppin' Up to End Violence 5K Walk and Fun Run is Saturday, April 30th!
Fundraising efforts benefit Turning Points Network, Sullivan County's FREE 24-hour crisis and support center for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, sex trafficking, and stalking. TPN provides one-on-one advocacy, education, resources, and prevention education for Sullivan County's youth.
Every year, this amazing community event grows due to the extraordinary individuals and teams who "Step Up" to walk, stroll, jog or run to end violence in their communities. Last year, participants helped raised over $80,000 in support of survivors, and this year the goal is set for $90,000! TPN hopes to CRUSH this goal with YOUR help! Get your teams together, get moving (literally!), and help us end violence in our communities.
Event sign in begins at 8:30am, April 30th at Claremont Middle School.
