WISE Connections
WISE Connections are opportunities to deepen connections with yourself, each other, and WISE. Deb Steele, local artist and art therapist, guides us through creative expressions with color, texture, words, and imagination. We meet together either in-person at the WISE Program Center or virtually via Zoom. No experience or ability is required. All materials are provided.
For information about upcoming sessions, please reach out to bailey@wiseuv.org.
Foundations of Gender-based Violence
Please check back for more information about our upcoming sessions or sign up now for our popular Foundations of Gender-based Violence. Sessions introduce the cultural foundations of gender-based violence and we reflect on our history, current norms, and explore the realities of domestic violence, sexual violence and stalking. This training is recommended for all community members interested in understanding our work, becoming a volunteer, or simply curious about how and why gender-based violence exists. To learn more and sign up, check out our new online registration.
Covered Bridges Half Marathon
WISE has been a Covered Bridges Half Marathon Nonprofit Partner for 10 years. Throughout the decade, over 150 runners have been on Team WISE – and many continue to run on our team year after year. This amazing group of people has raised over $200,000 to support our mission and programming. Last year, Team WISE had 34 runners out on the course, and seven of them placed in the top 10 of their divisions! The team raised over $34,000 through their personal networks of more than 350 donors. We are always inspired by the strength, dedication, and commitment that our incredible WISE Team brings every year.
Early registration for the 33rd Covered Bridges Half Marathon is now open for Team WISE. To register or sponsor a runner on the team, please click below. For more information, email us. Race day is June 1, 2025!
