Registration Fee: $35

New York Adult & Teen Challenge is a Christian residential discipleship program dedicated to helping individuals break free from life-controlling issues, including addiction, anxiety, and depression. Our mission is to see lives transformed through Christ as individuals begin to KNOW Christ, GROW in Christ, SERVE Christ, and SHARE what Christ has done for them.

With centers in Rochester, Buffalo, Syracuse (Men and Women), and Long Island officially opened back up, we are committed to providing hope and healing. However, our program is not supported by insurance or government funding—we rely entirely on the generosity of our community and fundraising events like our annual 5K Run/Walk for Recovery.

This event is more than just a race—it’s an opportunity to make a real difference. Every dollar raised goes directly to supporting and sponsoring the next individual seeking hope and restoration through our program. Participants can run or walk a traditional 5K while also engaging in peer-to-peer fundraising with their friends and family. Exciting prizes will be awarded based on fundraising achievements!

RHSC's Super Hear-O 5K & Family Fun Run

For the past two years, over 200 families gathered on a beautiful Sunday morning in June, many wearing superhero costumes, and ran, walked, rolled and strolled for a really great cause. They came out for Rochester Hearing & Speech Center’s annual Super Hear-O 5K, an event to celebrate the superheroes making a difference in the lives of individuals with hearing health needs and children with developmental disabilities served through our nonprofit mission of “Communication for Life.”

At RHSC, we provide both hearing health testing and treatment for individuals of all ages, but we also provide Early Intervention and Preschool Developmental Services to our youngest and most vulnerable children, many of whom are currently on the waitlist for Early Intervention services in Monroe County. Our team of audiologists, special education teachers, speech-language pathologists and occupational and physical therapists are superheroes who change the lives of so many every single day.

Now in it's third year, RHSC's Super Hear-O 5K & Family Fun Run will take place on Sunday, June 7th, from 9-11am in Seneca Park. This inclusive and family friendly event is geared toward all ages and abilities and features a 5K Walk/Run and a one-mile paved walk/roll or stroll option. The event also includes a Super Kid Zone filled with fun activities and our friends at Netsin’s will be joining us once again to provide ice cream for our participants. And, we’re expecting an even bigger turnout!

Please note that registration is FREE for kids under 12, but race t-shirt must be purchased at checkout, if desired (youth sizes available).
