September 7-13, 2025 is National Suicide Prevention Week, which is the opportunity to shine a special encouraging light & awareness on the topic that affects all walks of life. It sends out a clear message that there is hope and support is available. Suicide for middle-aged people, especially men, have the highest rate of suicide compared to other groups. 80% of all deaths by suicide in the U.S. are among men and women age 45-54. Men ages 85 and older have the highest rate of any group in the country as of November 8, 2022.

This race benefits the Knox County Suicide Prevention Coalition, a non-profit, charitable organization that is dedicated to the reducing the rate of suicide in Knox County and connecting those at risk with resources and support. The volunteer-based organization offers grief support, information on available resources and referral to community services. Knox Couty Suicide Coalition is holding its 15th annual 5k/10k walk/run on September 20th at Ariel Foundation Park, starting at 5:00 P.M.

We will also be lighting the tower and bridge as a memorial to those we’ve lost at approximately 7:15 P.M. Families and friends are encouraged to bring a picture of their loved one to share.

The walk & run is for suicide awareness, for those who have lost a loved one, for those who are suffering, and for those who want to remember. We are asking you to join us in making a difference in our community. We want to start the conversation about suicide. We strive to make this difficult topic into a common conversation subject and destigmatize the shame and guilt associated with suicide and mental health. We invite walkers, runners, joggers, dogs, and strollers of all ages to come out and participate. Even if you can’t join in the race, come support a great cause and start the conversation. Funds raised from this event will provide the education needed to identify the common causes of suicidal behavior, the warning signs, and how to help someone in crisis.
