Hudson County’s Strides for Safety 5k A Run Against Gun Violence
The Office of the Hudson County Executive invites you to: Save the Date for the 3rd Annual Strides for Safety 5K Against Gun Violence!
Our new Hudson County Executive, Craig Guy, spent two decades working on a range of philanthropic events for the County before taking elective office. This initiative is near and dear to his heart, as he served as a member of the JCPD for twenty five years—seeing first-hand the awful impact of gun violence on our community.
"We need to truly work together as a community if we are going to end gun violence," said County Executive Guy. "That means forging an effective coalition of parents, young people, religious leaders, committed advocates and law enforcement, all working together to build a County where everyone can thrive, free from the fear of gun violence."
The Strides for Safety 5k is the rallying point to raise awareness about what is being done to end gun violence and provide an opportunity for everyone to get involved. More than a single event, the Strides for Safety race is a dynamic platform to support and celebrate community organizations working to build peace and bring out the best of our city.
At this event, we are inviting our Hudson County community to run (or walk) to raise awareness and end gun violence here on our home front and across the U.S.
