We invite you to join us for the #AMileFor community walk, a special event during National Suicide Prevention Month that brings us together to remember our loved ones impacted by suicide and to raise awareness for mental health resources. This campaign turns to our cultural ways of using physical activity as a way to heal and support one another.

Date: Saturday, September 28th 
Time: 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM 
Location: 4041 N Central Ave, Building B, Phoenix, AZ 85013

Free #AMileFor t-shirts and customizable signs will be available on a first-come, first-served basis!
