A common myth is that suicide rates are higher in the winter and around the holidays. In fact, suicide rates start to increase in spring and peak in early summer. During this important time of the year, show support for suicide prevention initiatives by joining Active Minds at Maryland, the Help Center, and students from around campus to raise money for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. It couldn't be easier - the walk is ON CAMPUS and registration is FREE for walkers (all walkers receive a free t-shirt). Come show your support on May 5 at 10AM by the sun-dial on the Mall as we walk to raise money for suicide prevention programs. Register to walk or donate at: http://afsp.donordrive.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.eventDetails&eventID=1858. We hope to see you there!
