Description
THIS EVENT IS VIRTUAL FOR 2021!
Join CompetitorME, local education and health care professionals, plus our sponsors in supporting the Be Heard! "Stop the Stigma" 5K on Saturday, October 16, 2021.
Our goal is to start a dialogue in our community about mental health awareness through Access, Education, and Prevention. Each of us can make a contribution to ensure that people dealing with problems concerning mental health can live better lives with dignity.
Every year one adult in four, along with one child in ten, will struggle with a mental health issue. These conditions can profoundly affect literally millions of lives, affecting the capability of these individuals to make it through the day, to sustain relationships, and to maintain work at times.
Prior to the event, beginning at 8:15 am, we will have a series of speakers. Those talking will be local educators, those living with mental health issues, loved ones/care givers, and health care professionals. We ask that you come early to hear their messages.
If you need immediate assistance, please contact: The Maine Crisis Hotline 1-888-568-1112 or 711
Veterans Crisis Line 1-800-273-8255 or 838255
