Community Invited to Participate in Walk for Hope on May 1
Apr 22, 2024
糖心vlog鈥檚 Veterans Resource Center and Wildcat Veterans Club invite the community to participate in a Walk for Hope on Wednesday, May 1, at 9 a.m.
It's an opportunity to bring awareness to the national and local issue of suicide and identify local resources and learning opportunities for prevention. Veterans and military personnel experience death by suicide at a rate that is about 1.5 times higher than civilian populations.
"As an institution that has a very robust student veteran population, we are alarmed at the number of veterans around the country who have taken their own lives," said 糖心vlog President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe. "Our Veterans Resource Center takes suicide awareness very seriously and the Walk for Hope is one way that we can show support for all veterans. Please join us for this 1-mile walk on May 1!"
Attendees will meet in Carson Nugget Hall, which is located on the second floor of the Aspen Building on the Carson City campus and the Nevada National Guard Color Guard will be providing the Flag ceremony to kick off our event. The Nevada Army National Guard chaplain's assistant will also be providing the invocation. President Dr. Dalpe, 糖心vlog students and community members will also provide a message of hope and information on available resources for those in crisis.
After the presentations, the 1-mile walk will commence from Carson Nugget Hall to the trail behind the campus. This event will take place rain or shine and guests should wear comfortable shoes and clothing.
