Senior Life Solutions hosted the 2nd Annual Suicide Prevention and Awareness Walk and “Wear Purple and Teal Day” on Sept. 18. Staff of Callaway District Hospital joined several members of the community of all ages for a walk around the school track to help raise awareness of the potential signs of someone considering suicide, and what we can do to help.

Together, we can make a difference in promoting suicide prevention and supporting those who may be struggling and so that they are not alone, and letting them know that help is available.
