Walk to End Domestic Violence Tomorrow


BRONX - Walk to stop domestic violence during a 5K Run/Walk in the Bronx tomorrow. 




District Attorney Darcel D. Clark announced that the Bronx District Attorney’s Office, with sponsorship from the New York Yankees and the Bronx Borough President’s Office, will hold its fifth annual 5K Run/Walk/Roll to raise awareness and prevent domestic violence on Saturday, October 15, 2022.





District Attorney Clark said, “October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and I am excited to announce this year’s BXDA 5K Run/Walk/Roll to honor domestic violence victims and survivors. Some 500 people have registered to take part. Two courageous survivors will share their empowering stories, and hopefully inspire people who find themselves in a domestic violence situation to seek help, and those who are witness to someone being victimized to assist in preventing a tragic incident. I thank our co-sponsors and partners for helping to make this event possible.









“Assistant District Attorneys in my Domestic Violence Bureau are committed to helping victims. Currently, they are handling more than 1,300 cases. Our Crime Victims Assistance Bureau holds therapy sessions and provides additional support. This event will highlight all the resources available for DV victims. I look forward to showing solidarity with survivors.”


The free event is co-sponsored by the NY Yankees and the office of Bronx Borough President Vanessa Gibson, and in partnership with the NYC Mayor’s Office to End Domestic and Gender-Based Violence, BronxCare Health System and the Bronx Women’s Bar Association.


The event starts at 9:30 a.m. and the run/walk/roll begins and ends at East 161st Street between the Grand Concourse and Walton Avenue. Participants are encouraged to wear purple the color of Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Those who complete the race will receive a medal and a swag bag.


If you are a victim of domestic violence you can call the Bronx District Attorney’s Crime Victims Assistance Bureau at (718) 590-2115.
