Walk to End Violence

This Saturday, April 16th, Safeplace will be holding it's Walk to End Violence. The Austinist would like encourage everyone to show their support of victims of domestic and sexual violence by registering to walk or sponsoring a walker.

Safeplace is a resource and support center/shelter committed to the prevention of rape, sexual abuse and domestic violence within our community. They not only provide a safe place for women, children and men who are victimized to seek help, but also work within the community on education and prevention.

The services provided by Safeplace and it's staff and volunteers are indispensable, so please please PLEASE show your appreciation by donating or participating.

Recent funding cuts have forced Safeplace to scale back on some of its programs, so every dollar helps.
