Med center colleagues will participate in the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s Out of the Darkness Walk.<\/p>\n

The event to raise funds and awareness will be Saturday, Sept. 17, at Stinson Park in Aksarben Village. The walk is free to attend, and donations are optional.<\/p>\n

The team is sponsored by Nebraska Medicine and open to UNMC colleagues. Med center colleagues can join the team at this link.<\/u><\/a> <\/p>\n

Aug. 31 is the last day to register in order to also purchase a team T-shirt.<\/p>\n

The med center team captain is Jen Sparrock of Nebraska Medicine’s Psychiatric Emergency Services Unit. Contact her by email<\/a> with questions or to help with the event.<\/p>\n

Sign-in starts at 11:30 a.m. on the day of the walk, and the walk itself begins at 1 p.m.<\/p>\n

In addition, the med center will host a suicide loss impact display on Sept. 9 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Healing Hands statue in front of Hixson-Lied Center between Clarkson Hospital and Poynter Hall. <\/p>\n

The display will involve pairs of shoes depicting the number of Nebraskans who lost their lives to suicide last year. People visiting the display will be able to write a message of hope or remembrance in sidewalk chalk around the display.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
