From the Organizer

Empowerment in Motion is more than a race, it's a celebration of strength, resilience, and community. Whether you’re running, walking, or cheering from the sidelines, this event brings the community together to support empowerment, wellness, and positive change. Participants of all ages and fitness levels are welcome to join us as we move with purpose, honor personal journeys, and inspire one another every step of the way.   

This event will bring together Family Service of the Piedmont, Guilford College, and UNC Greensboro (UNCG) to strengthen support of victims of crime and trauma. This partnership will expand service capacity, awareness, and community outreach while providing valuable real-world learning experiences.

We will have a 5K route, 1-Mile Route, Resource Fair, and Activities for the whole family! 

UNCG Participants: Please visit Spartan Connect to learn more, and email brcapps@uncg.edu for accommodation requests or transportation assistance requests by 10/14/2026.
