SAFE Presents: A SAFE Trail

Close out November with a trauma-informed hike for survivors and supporters during Woman Abuse Prevention Month. Join us for SAFE Presents: A SAFE Trail! As Woman Abuse Prevention Month comes to a close, join SAFE and Happy Hikers Hamilton for a trauma-informed community hike along the shoreline at Confederation Beach. This is an invitation to spend an afternoon outdoors, connect with others, and take some time for yourself. Survivors, supporters, and community members are welcome. You don’t need to share your story or explain what brought you here. We’ll walk at a gentle pace, with room to pause and take in the surroundings. You’re welcome to chat, enjoy the quiet, or spend a little time doing both. Our trauma-informed approach respects your choices, personal space, and comfort throughout the walk. Woman Abuse Prevention Month is about recognizing the realities of abuse and the need for support that continues beyond November. For SAFE, that includes creating opportunities for survivors to be part of a community without any expectation to speak about what they’ve experienced. Whether you’re joining on your own or bringing someone with you, we’d love to see you there. All experience levels are welcome. If you have questions about the route or accessibility, please contact us before the event so we can discuss your needs.
