seattle out of the darkness walk

In memory of Tiffy, my family and I will be joining the Seattle Out of the Darkness walk at Green Lake Park, October 10th.  While I don't believe this program could have made a difference for Tiffy, I do believe it could make a difference for others who are contemplating suicide. And since I wouldn't wish the pain of losing family to suicide on my worst enemy, I want to support this effort.

The Out of the Darkness Community Walks are 3-5 mile walks taking place in over 200 communities across the country this fall, with the proceeds benefitting the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP). By walking in the Out of the Darkness Community Walks, you will be walking with thousands of other walkers nationwide to raise money for AFSP's vital research and education programs to prevent suicide and save lives, increase national awareness about depression and suicide and provide support for survivors of suicide loss. In deciding to walk you are taking us a step closer to making suicide prevention a national priority.
