CHN's Boots On The Ground 5K Walk For Breast Cancer

Join us for a powerful 5K walk to support breast cancer awareness with CHN's Boots On The Ground event.

About this Event

Community HealthNet Health Centers (CHN) is calling on YOU to show up, step out, and have a great time for a great cause! Whether you’re walking, line dancing, volunteering, shopping with local vendors, or just showing support we’d love to see you there as we celebrate survivors, those we lost and raise awareness about breast cancer.

“Early detection is key, and we’re proud to be a trusted resource for women’s health in our community,” says Dr. Janet Seabrook, founder and CEO of CHN.

CHN’s Breast Cancer Walk is one of Northwest Indiana’s most loved community events—and it’s not just for walkers! Bring your friends, your family, or your team. Walk in person, join virtually, or simply come out and enjoy the day. Marquette Park and the beach are stunning. All are welcome to help us turn hope into action.

Let’s walk, dance, connect, and lift each other up—because together, we’re stronger.
