About this Event

Suicide is the 11th leading cause of death in the United States. To prevent suicide, we need to understand it first.

Funds raised at the Out of the Darkness Howard County Walk directly support research, advocacy efforts, and educational programs in schools, workplaces, and communities across MD.

Register today and you're taking the first step to help save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide. It's free, quick, and easy to make a real impact.

The Walks are an opportunity to find a supportive community of people who get it, to know you're not alone, and to make a difference together.

Walks are between 1 to 3 miles and non-competitive. The route and additional information specific to the Howard County Walk will be added closer to Walk day.

Our program includes an opening ceremony, activities of hope and healing, resource tables, and complimentary honor beads for every participant.

Join us at the plaza located at the intersection of Merriweather Drive and Valencia Lane.

Parking is available in the Merriweather Post Pavilion Parking - Lot #3 at 5953 Symphony Woods Rd, Columbia, MD 21044.
