Thank you to all those who took steps with us toward supporting mental health and suicide prevention at the @afspnational American Foundation for Suicide Prevention's Out of the Darkness Walk in Grand Rapids on October 11! Your commitment to #mentalhealthawareness and #suicideprevention is making a difference and helping save lives every day. This year's walk raised over $71,000 for AFSP--$752 of which was raised by the Pine Rest Cares team, well surpassing our goal of $250. All funds raised will go toward AFSP suicide prevention programming, education and initiatives. Great job, everyone!
