The Step Forward to Prevent Suicide Walk is a 1.5 mile walk and remembrance ceremony. When you support this event, you join efforts with thousands of people to raise awareness and funds that allow the Helpline Center to provide statewide and local prevention services, educational programs, and support survivors of suicide loss.
We encourage people to put together a team or register as an individual as we continue to step forward to prevent suicide and support those bereaved by loss.
