Here's why people Walk for Change:
For yourself "Walking last year with all those people showed me that I am not alone and that there are people out there who want to help"
For someone you know "When my friend was raped, I didn't know what I could do to show her I supported her until I heard about the Walk"
For your community "I knew sexual assault happened on campus, I just didn't know what to do. One of my friends told us about the walk, so we decided to form a team."
BARCC is the only provider of comprehensive rape crisis services in the greater Boston area. Services include a 24-hour hotline, 24-hour ER accompaniment, counseling, legal assistance and community awareness and prevention programs. In the last year alone, BARCC helped over 4,000 survivors and another 10,000 people through prevention education, training and outreach.
