April was Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Turning Point Centers was proud to be a sponsor of the Fearless 5k Run/Walk held at Memorial Grove Park on Saturday, April 30th. The race itself had over 400 participants, included an appearance by Salt Lake City Mayor Jackie Biskupski, and ABC 4’s Kim Fisher shared her powerful story of overcoming her own experiences of sexual violence. Waffle Love was on site to help feed the crowd after the event and there was an awesome live musical performance by School of Rock! As many of our clients have been the victims of Sexual Assault we felt this was a very worthwhile cause. 100% of the event’s proceeds were donated to the Utah Coalition Against Sexual Assault to help strengthen the community’s education, prevention, and response to this underserved social issue. Turning Point Centers would also like to thank Fearless Self-Defense for the opportunity to be a sponsor and we look forward to making this an annual tradition. |
