Suicide. Mental Illness. They are both hard topics to discuss and have a strong stigma associated with them. This is a walk to raise awareness for mental illness and suicide here in La Plata County & the surrounding area. They often go hand in hand and the loved ones do not know what to do to help. Many people suffering do not know where to turn; we are bringing everybody together so they know what can help them become the people they want to be. We want people to know they are not a burden, they are not alone. We want them to know they are enough as they are right now and deserve to live the way they desire. This event will not only be informational, but healing. While we walk the track, we will have speakers from the community touching on these topics. We will end our walk with a candle lit ceremony and a silent lap for the loved ones we have lost or who are suffering now. Lite refreshments & snacks will be provided.
