Small steps make a big difference.
Join The Joy Smith Foundation at Joy In Action—a free, community-focused run/walk/bike event that invites Manitobans to take meaningful action against human trafficking in Canada.
Whether you’re clocking a personal best or strolling with loved ones, your steps support a nationwide movement of education, prevention, and survivor support. The route is family-friendly and welcoming for all ages, with face painting, free snacks, emergency vehicle tours, and more.
Why It Matters:
Human trafficking is one of the fastest-growing crimes in Canada, and it often hides in plain sight. Joy In Action raises awareness and provides Canadians with tools to recognize the signs of trafficking and protect those around them.
