Walk a Mile in Her Shoes (R)
Join the YWCA Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault Resource Center for the International Men's Walk to Stop Rape, Sexual Assault & Gender Violence.
You can't really understand another person's experience until you've walked a mile in their shoes. Walk a Mile in Her Shoes(R) asks men to literally 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 men's sexualized violence against women.
Walk organizers from the YWCA of Walla Walla encourage men to wear heels and everyone to wear purple, the official color of October, Domestic Violence Action Month. Purple ribbons will be available at Heritage Park...and bandages for your toes will be available at the courthouse, where the walk concludes with a brief presentation.
