Fifth Annual Out of the Darkness Walk to Take Place April 28

Kutztown, PA (04/23/2019) — In partnership with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP), Kutztown University's Clinical Services will host its fifth annual Out of the Darkness Walk for Suicide Awareness and Prevention on Sunday, April 28. The walk will begin at 5 p.m. on the DMZ, located on the south side of campus between Old Main and the South Dining Hall.

All proceeds benefit AFSP and walkers can take pride in knowing that they will be one of thousands of people across the country raising money to bring mental health and suicide out of the darkness. AFSP is the leading national non-profit organization exclusively dedicated to understanding and preventing suicide through research, education and advocacy, as well as to creating a culture that's smart about mental health and bringing hope to those affected by suicide.

Walkers are also able to register on the day of the walk between 4 and 5 p.m. All pre-registered and walk up registrants must check-in the day of the walk. Snacks and information tables on suicide prevention will be provided for walkers at the event.
