**Families are allowed to participate without a paid registration- however they still must register the day of the walk and sign a waiver a liability.

We realize not everyone can pay- that’s okay- we just want you, your family and your fur babies there to walk with us and be a voice for those who can cannot have a voice!

How will you start the conversation… “Are you feeling ok? Are you sad? Do you feel hopeless? Do you feel safe? Are you feeling suicidal? Do you have a plan?”
