Running has become Vanessa’s best mental, physical and spiritual form of self-expression. Despite a brutal attack and rape while on her daily jog in 2010 and other physical injuries, she presses on and continues to run every day. She is known as "The West Hartford Jogger", and her assailant was captured and sentenced to 18 years in prison in 2013. Vanessa continues to speak about her experience in the hopes of inspiring victims to come forward and end their silence.

Your fundraising efforts go directly toward empowering survivors of sexual crimes to find their voice, advance their healing and education others through our programs and services including:

Running for Jane Doe No More gave our team a sense of purpose. It was an honor to run knowing we were helping raise awareness of sexual assault.
