It continues for years as the Survivors of Suicide try to grasp, understand, find a place for, or move on from the huge loss they have experienced.<\/p>\n<p>The Memorial Walk\/Run is one way we can honor our loved ones who have died by suicide. It is one way we can process through the grief. And it is one way we can reach out to others not affected to help them understand how we all might recognize and support others in need\u2026 before it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n<p>EMPACT-SPC, a non-profit agency, works to help those in crisis as well as support those who have lost a loved one. This Walk\/Run is one way to help the organization raise awareness about its services. It\u2019s also one way we can help others and raise dollars to make sure programs are available for those struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, and loss. <strong>(TAX ID # 74-2562293)<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Take a walk, save a life.
