About Us
Mission Statement: Out of the Darkness Suicide Prevention is dedicated to raising awareness for suicide prevention and mental health through the annual Out of the Darkness Walk, held in the Spring. Through fundraising, tabling, public speaking, members can collaborate to organize the annual walk in teams dispersed among the VCU academic and medical communities. This walk contributes all funds to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, in funding its efforts to raise awareness on suicide and mental health, raise money for research and education to prevent suicide from taking place, and providing assistance and a safe outlet for survivors of suicide.
