4th Annual Mental Wellness Walk held virtually on October 24, 2020
The Walk was presented by the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Western Carolina and All Souls Counseling Center. The walk normally includes a 5K, music, refreshments, and resource displays. However, this past year, due to the pandemic, the event was held virtually and community members participated in their own time. Despite being virtual, the event was a huge success. The Walk seeks to raise awareness of mental wellness and to promote community resources available for people with mental health issues.
Why walk for mental wellness?
Mental health was ranked one of the leading health issues facing Buncombe County according to the most recent Community Health Assessment with half of respondents reporting that mental health care was difficult to access.
Registration was held at: mentalwellnesswalk.org
All funds raised supported the work of NAMI WC and All Souls Counseling Center to provide mental health counseling, support, education, and advocacy.
Stay tuned for news about how you can participate in the 2021 Mental Wellness Walk, to be held in October!
