The Indiana Coalition
Against Domestic Violence (ICADV) is proud to host the 7th Annual Race
Away From Domestic Violence - to raise awareness and money to help us end
domestic violence in Indiana. It happens. Every nine seconds. Someone is a
victim of domestic violence. Sometimes it happens to a family member; other
times, it happens to those we least suspect. Regardless, it's up to all of us
to end the abuse and violence. You can help -- it's easy and fun! Come out and
join us rain or shine!

TEAM INFORMATION: Why form
a team a team? Walking or running with people you know makes participating in
the ICADV Race Away from Domestic Violence even more fun! Training and fund
raising together makes it that much easier to reach your goals. Teams can be
made up of co-workers, friends, family members or anyone who wants to do a
great run/walk for a great cause. Eliminating domestic violence is a team
effort and Team Captains are our leaders in that pursuit. If you can recruit
four dedicated people to walk/run with you (and we know you can!), consider
becoming a team captain. There will be another Team Competition in which prizes
will be awarded to the team that has the highest number of members as well as
the team who raised the most money.
