One race. One mission.
One step at a time.
Until all are free.

The journey of justice is a lot like running a race! It requires hard work, commitment, endurance, and a passionate, supportive community that refuses to quit. And the results are always worth it.

On Saturday, June 7th, 2025, we're lacing up and putting our words into action by running the Race to Restore.

Join people from across the country who are passionate about justice and want to do something tangible to impact survivors everywhere who need support. Whether you want to walk, hike, run or sprint across the finish line, every step you take helps encourage a survivor on their journey towards flourishing in health, safety and freedom.

This is a VIRTUAL event – which means you can participate from anywhere!
