The Be Aware 5k for Youth Suicide Awareness and Prevention is intended to shine a light on the skyrocketing issues surrounding youth mental health (depression, anxiety, and the potential for suicide).
Suicide is currently the SECOND leading cause of death for youth ages 10 to 24, and 46% of teens are reporting persistent sadness or hopelessness. With funds raised by this event, we aim to address this alarming reality through the programs being offered by the Chippewa Valley Coalition for Youth and Families and KnowResolve.
