The Annual 5K Run/1 Mile Walk for Judi's Place for Kids is back!!!

Prizes/ Opportunities:

One With Courage Awards: Be sure to nominate individuals or groups in the community that have shown courage supporting children over the past year! There are three One With Courage Awards for those that bring "Hope", "Help" and "Healing" to children. You can email kim.lee@ky.gov to make nominations! Costume contests: The Run with Courage is still superhero themed! Everyone who helps a child is a superhero, and the children who are survivors of abuse are also heroes!  Watch social media for details on how to submit your entries for individual, team, and pet categories. Registration fee: $30. This price helps us cover the cost of the t-shirts for participants as well as race timers, bibs, pins and everything else needed to make sure we have a successful race! On-site registration will be available at 7:00am the day of the event. L imited t-shirts will be available for those signing up after March 21st including the day of the event.

To celebrate children in our community and build commitment to the fight against child abuse, we encourage everyone to participate and to wear superhero costumes to show your support for children facing abuse. All proceeds from the race will benefit Judi’s Place for Kids to continue providing services that promote safety and justice, hope, and healing for children who have been victims of abuse. Judi's Place for Kids offers forensic interviews, victim advocacy, medical care, mental health therapy, and public education. Learn more about our services at www.JudisPlace.org .
