‘Walk a Mile in Their Shoes’ calls attention to domestic abuse

In an effort to raise awareness about domestic abuse in Bloomington and throughout the U.S., members of the CommUNITY Education program will be organizing “Walk a Mile in Their Shoes,” taking place in April.

For those interested in participating in the organization, there is a call-out meeting at 5:30 p.m. today in the Community and Leadership Development Center of Read Clark.

CommUNITY educator and junior Dylan Rudy said the charity walk will raise money for Middle Way House.

“We will be walking a mile in shoes we don’t normally wear,” he said. “For example, men will wear women’s shoes during the walk.”
