While Strides for Peace is eager to bring people together for an awesome lakefront race and celebration, they want to make sure EVERYONE is safe and stays safe. COVID-19 is impacting hardest the same areas where gun violence is escalating. With the all the challenges and uncertainty, we want to give people something they can count on and positively engage in – now! Because so many are craving community and connection, launching virtually now provides a needed and special opportunity for people to train together, connect to community organizations and be part of building peace.
