Starting at 4:00 am, in the dark & early hours of the morning, friends of the Boston Irish Pastoral Centre will walk together as the dawn breaks and sunlight emerges. The Solace Sunrise Walk invites people from across the country to embark on a journey symbolic of the path many of our clients experience while attending our counseling services - making one's way from a place of darkness and loneliness to a place of hope and healing. This extraordinary event continues to bring our community together each year, as we walk in solidarity, fighting the fight against suicide. Join us this summer, as we continue to break down the stigma and create awareness around suicide and mental health.
Walk with your community at Castle Island to reinforce the message, you are not alone. Walk with us to raise awareness and funds for free mental healthcare. Together we will work towards a world without suicide. All funds raised for this walk will be applied to the development of the Irish Pastoral Centre’s new Mental Health Support Program, in association with Solace House USA, launching summer 2021.
Please note this outdoor event is contingent on state regulations and maintains the possibility of postponement. We will take all necessary measures to ensure the safety and health of participants. Additionally, this is a limited capacity event; therefore, we will max ticket sales according to city & state parks occupancy permission.
