On March 7th and 8th, Survivor Justice Center brought together an incredible community of supporters at Dodger Stadium for our 6th annual Empower Run!

Our dedicated team joined thousands of runner and took to the streets as part of the LA 5K, winding through the scenic paths of Elysian Park before finishing back at Dodger Stadium. The energy was electric among the 100+ runners, walkers and supporters who showed up to stand with survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking.

This year marked a major milestone: for the first time ever, Survivor Justice Center joined the exclusive LA Charity Half Marathon! Our incredible team of charity runners took on an extraordinary 13.6-mile journey from Dodger Stadium all the way to Avenue of the Stars, passing through LA’s beloved neighborhoods and past iconic landmarks.

Thank you to everyone who ran, walked, cheered, and gave. See you next year!
