The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (www.afsp.org) hosts a number of community awareness and fund raising events each year.  These are opportunities for survivors to help raise suicide awareness and help to fund suicide prevention activities in our communities.   It is a way to honor your loved one and another step in healing.  For more information go to http://afsp.donordrive.com/

It's a place to laugh, to cry, and to heal - to honor the past and embrace a future that your work will change for the better.  Video about The Overnight Walk  https://youtu.be/c-27fFEasB4
