Solace Sunrise Walk

 
 
 

Our 5K Walk/Run takes place each year to help support Solace House and create awareness around suicide prevention and mental health. Our community will remember those we have lost to suicide and walk together, in solidarity, reinforcing the message: “You are not alone”.

 
 

The Solace Sunrise Walk is an annual 5k walk/run that raises funds and awareness for suicide and self-harm prevention. Those participating walk from the darkness of pre-dawn into the bright, sun-filled morning, symbolizing the journey many in suicidal distress undertake when attending our services.

We are proud to have walks in many locations including Queens NY, Bronx NY, Rockland NY, Catskills/East Durham NY and Asbury, NJ.

The Solace Sunrise Walk not only raises much needed funds to maintain our free service, providing professional therapy for those who desperately need it, but it also facilitates the expansion of our service through the provision of awareness workshops and prevention training in each of our participating venues.

We look forward to walking with you this year!
