To raise community awareness about the challenges women face when fleeing dangerous situations to seek shelter—and ultimately to help secure critical gap funding for Norma Herr Women’s Shelter (NHWC) —we are leading a Walk for Herr event. The route begins and ends at our Prospect Avenue parking lot, with a loop to and from the NHWC Payne site. Transportation will be available at Payne if individuals do not want to walk back to Prospect.

While the late-fall weather in Cleveland may be predictably unpredictable, we see this as an opportunity to emphasize an important truth: women fleeing violence cannot wait for the “right” conditions to seek safety.

Come walk with us. Walk for Herr.
