PALM COAST, Fla. - Floridant -- The Rotary Club of Flagler Beach will host an Awareness Walk to promote the 988 National Suicide Crisis Hotline at 6:00 pm on September 19, 2024. Participants will walk from Wadsworth Park in Flagler Beach, over the SR 100 bridge to Veterans Park where they will gather for a brief ceremony.
All are welcome to attend this free event that aims to bring the community together to raise awareness about the importance of mental health and the critical resources available through the 988 hotline.
"We invite all community members to join us for this important awareness walk that we are hosting in honor of September being National Suicide Prevention Month. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that everyone knows about the life-saving resource that is the 988 hotline," said Karen Pastoriza Williams, president of Rotary Club of Flagler Beach.
