Maine Edge advances Out of Darkness Community Walk
The Maine Edge carried a University of Maine news release about the seventh annual Out of the Darkness Community Walk to be held Sunday, Oct. 4. The UMaine Counseling Center and St. Joseph Healthcare will host the noncompetitive 5K walk through campus and surrounding areas. Funds raised from the event will benefit research initiatives of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP). The Orono walk is one of more than 350 Out of the Darkness walks that take place in communities across the country each year. More than 500 people participated in last year’s Orono walk which raised more than $18,000 for the Maine Chapter of AFSP. Healthcare Industry Today also carried the release.
