Description

A superhero isn't defined by powers or costumes. A superhero is defined by caring about the troubles of others and having the courage to do something about it. 

Child Advocates Superhero Run supports the 8,000 children in Marion County who are victims of abuse and neglect every year. By participating in the superhero run, you are ensuring that each of these children have voices in court and are placed in safe and permanent homes as soon as possible.

What is Child Advocates? Child Advocates is a non-profit organization comprised of staff members and volunteer advocates who represent the best interest of abused and neglected children who are in the Marion County Child Welfare System. Child Advocates recruits and thoroughly trains community volunteers who advocate for those children in Marion County Juvenile Court based solely their best interests.

Every day in Marion County, more than 13 children enter the child welfare system due to abuse and neglect. Child Advocates steps in to make sure these children do not get lost in the system that their needs are met during the course of their court cases. Child Advocates assigns a constant caring volunteer advocate to the child to ensure that safe and permanent home if found for him/her as soon as possible.

In 2016, Child Advocates served over 8,833 children. Will you run for one?

By participating in the Superhero Run you are helping provide a voice for children who desperately need one. We encourage you to walk, run or fly with us at the Child Advocates Superhero Run because every child needs a hero, but abused children need superheroes! It will be a “super” fun day full of kid’s activities, costume contest and so much more.
