STANDOFF, AB – On Friday, November 24, 2023, the Kainai Women’s Wellness Lodge will team up with the Blood Tribe Police Service (BTPS) for a special event.
The annual ‘Walk in Her Shoes’ domestic violence awareness walk will see men in the community walk around in women’s shoes, all in the name of an important cause.
In a news release, Doris Low Horn, manager of the Kainai Women’s Wellness Lodge said, “November is Family Violence [Prevention] Month.”
Low Horn noted that for the last decade, they have hosted a walk to raise awareness on domestic violence and in the past four years, the initiative has been referred to as the ‘Walk in Her Shoes’ event.
