It's the Finale
As the dedicated rape crisis services center for Baltimore City and County, we invite you to join us and Baltimore City Mayor Brandon Scott for a public awareness event on December 2 at 5pm at Camden Yards.
The event is the culmination of a seven-week campaign to raise funds and awareness of the organization and its services to the community, including its rape crisis hotline, clinical therapy resources, and emergency shelter assistance.
The campaign features a unique Virtual Ambassador program designed to engage members of the community in awareness and prevention efforts. Mayor Scott will be joined by Maryland State Senator Cory McCray and Delegate Brooke Lierman.
“We have spent the last seven weeks doing what we do best – getting out into our Baltimore community both in-person and virtually to spread the word about our services and resources, and educate about sexual violence, domestic abuse, and human trafficking,” TurnAround Executive Director Amanda Rodriguez said.
“We are holding this last event in the campaign at the iconic Camden Yards to symbolize our commitment to Baltimore, and to illustrate just how much we can accomplish in terms of awareness when we work together. That is what our Virtual Ambassador program is all about.”

ABOUT the 7 Weeks Campaign

Our dedicated team provides comprehensive services to approximately 3,000 survivors annually and educates thousands of community members and partners on topics such as identifying the warning signs of human trafficking, ending rape culture, and supporting survivors.
