Queens Out of the Darkness Community Walk
The very first Queens Out of the Darkness Community Walk is a fundraising event to raise funds for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, and to bring suicide prevention and depression awareness programs to the people of Queens and all of NYC. More than 33,000 people die by suicide in the US every year, and it is estimated that an attempt is made every minute. Suicide is the 3rd leading cause of death in the US of those between the ages of 15 and 24, and is the second leading cause of death among college students. Help us silence the stigma surrounding suicide and depression and walk with us as we make out footsteps heard on November 1st!
