Why We Walk:

The Walk for Belonging is a special opportunity to connect our community, including those who have been system impacted, along with allies and partner organizations that support those working hard to rebuild their lives after incarceration and homelessness. Come find resources, connection, and advocacy opportunities for involvement.

The Walk for Belonging also raises awareness that April is Second Chance Month, a nationwide effort to reaffirm the importance of helping people who were formerly incarcerated reengage with their communities.

Show your support by walking and donating to reentry efforts! The host of this 5th annual event is Communities of Belonging: a 501c3 empowering formerly incarcerated and homeless populations with holistic support and peaceful reintegration into society.

Your support has provided 8 years of permanent, supportive, housing; nearly 400 weekly community circles, and opportunities for community engagement- just like this one! Bring your friends and stand strong for brighter futures and a world where everyone belongs!
