Join us at 1PM, prior to event for a 1 mile awareness walk. Posters can be made prior to start of walk and then come back to 800 for food, community tables and hear from individuals with lived experience. Attendees may take part in decorating a candle to honor their loved one. The event will close with a moment of silence.
Representatives from Community Care Alliance and partnering organizations— Discovery House, Landmark Medical Center, Health Equity Zone, Milagros Project, Codac, and more will be there to outreach the community.
