During Walk a Mile in Her Shoes, we heard from a domestic violence victim who was helped by YWCA Rock County’s emergency shelter. She arrived at the YWCA with her young son in a time of crisis. Today, she is filled with hope for the future. In the video, she shared these words; “The YWCA has actually shown me that I am somebody, and I can be anything and do anything, if I put my mind to it.”

 

Your support of Walk a Mile in Her Shoes helps ensure these survivors will always have a place to turn in times of crisis.

 

There is still time to help!
