Out of the Darkness Campus Walk planned April 2

The University of the Cumberlands Nursing Program is trying to do what it can to help prevent suicide and raise awareness about it.

On April 2, the inaugural Out of the Darkness Campus Walk will be held at 11 a.m. at the UC campus in Williamsburg.

The Out of the Darkness Campus Walk is a journey of remembrance, hope, support, and a walk that unites a campus and community – a time to acknowledge the ways in which suicide and mental illness have affected our lives and our loved ones, organizers wrote on the event registration page.

Organizers are hoping to raise $5,000 through the event.
