Walk Against Domestic Violence

Jeanne Geiger Annual Walk Against Domestic Violence in Newburyport Massachusetts

The Walk Against Domestic Violence is hosted by Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center in Newburyport, Massachusetts. We walk because it could be your best friend, your younger sister, the man who works in the office next to you, your child's best friend, or the teenage girl who works in the local coffee shop. We walk because domestic violence doesn't have a face, because it could happen to anyone, at any time. Walk with us as we advocate for change and raise awareness for domestic violence.

  • Registration will open at 9:00 a.m.
  • The Walk will step off at 10:00 a.m.

The Walk Against Domestic Violence meets at Waterfront Park to walk a 3-mile route in honor of victims and survivors of domestic violence.

The annual Walk Against Domestic Violence is one of the Center’s largest fundraisers of the year. Proceeds from this event allow us to provide free, safe, and confidential programs and services to 16 local communities.

These services include:

  • 24-Hour Emergency Hotline
  • Crisis Counseling for Adults and Children
  • Advocacy and Safety Planning
  • Court Advocacy
  • Legal Representation
  • Housing Assistance
  • Art Therapy
