Welcome and thank you for your interest in joining us in the month-long
Community Walk-A-Thon Against Child Abuse!
Throughout this month, as we lace up our shoes and hit the pavement together, we are not only taking steps towards physical fitness but also making a profound statement against child abuse. Your dedication to raising awareness and funds for this important cause is making a real difference in our community, and we commend you for your efforts.

About
The Walk
Y-Empowerment, Inc., is a Family Maintenance and Intimate Partner Violence (Domestic Violence) Non-Profit Organization. Our main objective is that of helping youth and families who have experienced domestic violence overcome their adversities and help live healthy and productive lives.
At Y-Empowerment, we provide several services to domestic violence victims such as, Domestic Violence Counseling and Advocacy, Anger Management and Parenting Classes, Sexual Abuse Prevention classes, Supervised Visitation, as well as CPR and First Aid Certifications.
On July 4, 2021, Y-Empowerment hosted a virtual awareness campaign to launch our newest program “THE WALK”; where our CBO walked across America highlighting statistics surrounding child abuse and who people can turn to for help, and how they can help!
The Walk is Y-Empowerment’s vision of bringing awareness and aid in the prevention of child abuse within Kern County. We provide services for children who have experienced abuse, witnessed domestic violence, or have parents who are or have been incarcerated. We do this, through Youth mentoring, social interaction, education, and empowerment of themselves with our workshops, retreats, and camps. We are dedicated to enabling our youth to follow the walk into a safe and healthy lifestyle.
