National Native HIV/AIDS Awareness Day

(NNHAAD) is an annual holiday observed on the first day of Spring It’s a day to give hope and support to people in American communities regarding HIV, draw attention to those fighting and honor those who have been lost These sorts of events are very crucial and should be observed worldwide, especially in countries with less advanced medical and health services with great emphasis made on prevention. We believe the people who create awareness and help fight this are unsung heroes and we are very elated to join in commemorating this day

As volunteers for the Southeast Texas chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, Terri and Stephanie are excited to co-chair the 2nd annual Hike for Hope suicide prevention event held in Galveston, Texas "This cause is personal for both of us" Terri lost her mom to suicide 20 years ago, and after receiving an AFSP brochure at the funeral, has long been involved with AFSP, attending Out of the Darkness Walks and volunteering first in Austin and then with the Southeast Texas chapter Stephanie, too, is passionate about mental health, having suffered from childhood trauma as well as losing several family members to suicide Stephanie’s involvement with AFSP began when Terri invited her to an Out of the Darkness Walk in Austin in 2019

Much as it sounds, AFSP’s Hike for Hope events put a hiking spin on the Out of the Darkness Walks: an opportunity to bring people together to generate awareness for the cause, along with raising funds for suicide prevention in our local community while fostering connection and generating important conversations The Galveston Hike for Hope, is on Saturday, March 25, 2023, and is a 5k journey on the paved seawall that runs parallel to the Gulf of Mexico on Galveston Island. Although it’s called a “hike,” the event was really a leisurely stroll alongside beautiful scenery, welcoming for anyone who wanted to join in.
