2024 Run for Hope 5k

5K Run for Hope event in the Town of Trail Creek on Saturday, September 14, 2024. The inaugural event theme will be “I’ll Be There for You.”  Our goal is to raise suicide awareness and help to stop the stigma surrounding mental health issues and care in LaPorte County, Indiana.

**Note:  T-shirt and finisher medals not guaranteed for registrations after 08/01/24**

Swanson Center has been the community mental health center for LaPorte County for more than 50 years, and, as such, provides complete mental and behavioral health services to those who live and/or work in LaPorte County. It is our hope that through this event, we will help break the silence surrounding suicide, stop the stigma, and raise awareness that there is hope for those struggling with various mental health concerns.
