Every Spring on the last Friday in April, UA Little Rock holds our Suicide Prevention Campus Walk in cooperation with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. The goals of this walk are to:

  • raise awareness about the impact suicide has on our community
  • offer support to those who have lost a loved one to suicide
  • educate the public about suicide prevention
  • help spread the word about mental health resources that are available both on and off campus
  • raise funds to support the important work of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention

You can register for the walk at afsp.org/ualr. On this page you can donate, become a sponsor, join a team, or create your own team for the walk.
