6th Annual Walk in Memory, Walk for Hope – Suicide Prevention Walk

With the help of its members, NCSP has created community suicide prevention walks that take place across the State of Nevada during National Suicide Prevention Week in September. With credit to the Elko SOS group for the very first “Walk in Memory, Walk for Hope” in 2006, the walk event raises awareness of the problem of suicide in Nevada, offers healing support to survivors of suicide loss, and raises money for communities to support prevention efforts.

In 2011, our 5th annual “Walk in Memory, Walk for Hope” (WMWH) grew to 1100 walkers in eight communities throughout Nevada.

The 6th annual WMWH will take place on September 15, 2012, and we would love for you to join us. You can help us STOP SUICIDE by participating in this wonderful event.
