Methodist Health System is a proud sponsor of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s upcoming Out of the Darkness Community Walk.

The walk is a journey of remembrance, hope and support. It unites our communities and provides an opportunity to acknowledge the ways in which suicide and mental health conditions have affected our lives and the lives of those we love and care about.

All employees and their loved ones are invited to join the Methodist team and walk as a united front. This year’s Methodist team is named “Meaning of Care – Hope Lives Here.”
