The Community Walks, held in hundreds of communities across the country, are the core of the Out of the Darkness movement, which began in 2004. These events give people the courage to open up about their own connections to the cause, and a platform to create a culture that?s smarter about mental health. Friends, family members, neighbors and coworkers walk side-by-side, supporting each other and in memory of those we?ve lost.

It?s more important than ever for us to stay connected. Register Today and help save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide. If you live near the IU Southeast campus in New Albany, Indiana (Floyd County), join our team!

To support the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, our team worked with the IU Southeast Design Center to create a custom designed shirt to raise funds. The 2026 design was created by IU Southeast Graphic Design student, Star Stinson, as team member of the IU Southeast Design Center operated under the direction of team co-captain, Leslie Doyle of the College of Education, Arts, and Human Services.
