South Florida, Let's Walk for Suicide Prevention This Weekend!

This Saturday, October 17, 2026, South Florida has another opportunity to come together for a meaningful cause at the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) Out of the Darkness Walk at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) in Boca Raton. This event brings together families, friends, suicide loss survivors, mental health advocates, and community members who share a common goal: raising awareness, breaking the stigma surrounding mental health, and helping prevent suicide. Whether you're walking in memory of someone you love, supporting someone who is struggling, or simply showing up because you care, your presence sends a powerful message that no one should have to face their darkest moments alone.

At In Her Name, we believe that suicide prevention is a responsibility we all share. You don't need to be an expert or make a grand gesture to contribute to meaningful change. Sometimes, it begins with showing up, listening to someone's story, learning about available resources, or starting a conversation that might otherwise never happen. So, South Florida, bring your family, invite your friends, and spend part of your Saturday supporting a cause that affects so many lives. Let's fill the FAU campus with compassion, connection, and hope for a future where fewer lives are lost to suicide. Visit afspwalks.donordrive.com/PalmBeach for event details and registration. Every person who shows up matters, and together, we can make a difference.
