Why a Men’s March?

Women and gender-diverse folks are always doing the work for men in terms of taking a stand for violence against women. Men and male-identifying allies have more power relative to women in society, which places them in great place to advance gender initiatives.
Walk a Mile in HER Shoes is not only a great opportunity to raise funds and awareness, but it also directly benefits those who participate. Walk a Mile in HER Shoes directly benefits men and male-identifying allies by...

Promoting healthy relationships
Broadening gender expectations and norms
Changing ridged gender perceptions
Promoting male allyship
Transforming unhealthy masculinities
Advancing self-care for men
Walk a Mile in HER Shoes is an opportunity for men and male-identifying allies to put in the work to end violence against women.
