Walk A Mile In Her Shoes


Are You Man Enough?

Slip on your heels
and walk with us to end domestic violence.

Walk a Mile in Her Shoes is an annual event that began in 2008 where men (and women) wear high heeled shoes and walk for a mile in downtown San Diego to build awareness, in a light-hearted way, of the prevalence of domestic violence and its negative impact on the community.  Everyone is encouraged to participate, including families, students, politicians, policemen, firemen, media, and business people, and we thank you for leading the way to ending domestic violence.  It is going to take each member of our community to change the way we view domestic violence and stop it.

The proceeds from the event support the YWCA’s Becky’s House® Domestic Violence Program.

Walk on!
