CfJJ on the Run (5k)

CfJJ on the Run is a 5k race that will raise awareness of and support for some of the most vulnerable children in Massachusetts: those who get in trouble with the law. CfJJ on the Run is a project of Citizens for Juvenile Justice, a statewide advocacy group that works to keep kids out of the adult criminal system and to make the juvenile system fair, effective, and focused on rehabilitation and prevention. This event is part of a national group of 5k walk/runs for Youth Justice Awareness month.

Additional Information:

This is a chipped and timed race. Children under 10 are free. Strollers are welcome. Please plan to start near the end of the line to reduce crowding and allow runners to achieve their best time. For the safety of runners and walkers, please leave your family pets at home.
