The Survivor Justice Center’s 6th annual Empower Run will take place March 7th – 8th, 2026 at Dodger Stadium.

Since 2024, our community of supporters has the opportunity to run and walk together as part of the LA 5K in support of survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault and human trafficking. This year, for the first time, Survivor Justice Center will also be a part of the exclusive LA Charity Half Marathon!

The LA5K is open to participants of all ages and abilities, including runners, walkers and strollers and is attended by over 8,000 people. Starting and finishing in front of Dodger Stadium, participants experience a beautiful course through Elysian Park.

The LA Charity Half Marathon is exclusive to charity runners. From Dodger Stadium to Avenue of the Stars, passing LA’s charming neighborhoods and iconic landmarks over 13.7 miles, charity runners will experience the thrilling energy of the marathon course while running for survivors.

Each participant will receive a race shirt and finisher medal, as well as an additional Survivor Justice Center team shirt.

Funds raised by the 2026 Empower Run will provide access to free representation and legal services to low-income survivors and help them secure safety, justice and stability.
