The LBA Health & Wellness Committee is committed to fostering well-being within our legal community. With this in mind, we have set a fundraising goal of $1,500 for the Out of the Darkness Walk, and we need your support to achieve it.

Why is this walk important?

Lawyers, like many other professionals, are not immune to mental health challenges. According to the American Psychological Association and other studies, depression is one of the most common triggers for suicide, and lawyers are 3.6 times more likely to suffer from depression compared to non-lawyers.

By participating in this walk, donating, sharing, or simply showing your support, you can profoundly impact raising awareness about suicide prevention and mental health in our legal community.

Let's walk together, advocate for mental health, and show that we care.

We are excited to invite you to join the LBA Health & Wellness Committee for a meaningful event - the "Out of the Darkness: Suicide Prevention Louisville Walk" on November 2 at the beautiful Waterfront Park, Louisville, KY.

Event Details:

• Date: Saturday, November 2
• Check-in Time: 9:00 a.m.
• Walk Start Time: 10:00 a.m.
