Hope Walks Here!
The Out of the Darkness Campus Walks are the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention's (AFSP) signature student fundraising series, designed to engage youth and young adults in the fight to prevent suicide, a leading cause of death.
If you're looking for support and/or resources, please visit www.afsp.org/get-help and www.afsp.org/resources.
Walk Route:
Participants will walk around the center of UTK's campus, and will have the opportunity to help us paint the Rock along the Walk Route!
Parking and Location Information:
Registration and the opening ceremony will be at HSS Plaza, across from Hodges Library off of the pedestrian walkway. We’re recommending that people park in lot G10, next to Neyland Stadium. Street parking is also free on Saturdays.
