Register to Walk a Mile 2016
Walk: Sam Steele Days Parade on June 18, 2016.
This event asks men to walk one mile in women’s high-heeled shoes.
It’s not easy walking in these shoes, but it’s fun and it gets the community to talk about something that’s really difficult to talk about: Gender relations and sexual violence.
