BE THE CHANGE 5K Run/Walk Stomp out the Stigma of Mental Illness SATURDAY, MAY 19, 2018 8 A.M. Chestnut Park, Murray, KY Pre-register by May 6 to guarantee a T-shirt: $25 Kids 12 and under: $10 Race day registration: 7 a.m. $30 A portion of proceeds will go to the Suicide Prevention Coalition of Calloway County.

Jessica James, manager at Bridges Family Center, said this is the third year for the event. “We started this as a way to raise awareness of mental issues. You hear news reports about mass shootings and other criminal matters, and the first thing blamed is a mental illness. That type of news coverage scares people who might need to seek help. We want to educate the public that mental health resources exist in Murray and Calloway County.”

Also from James: “We chose the Suicide Prevention Coalition of Calloway County to receive funds because people often don’t think to donate to mental health resources.”

  • Race organizers also will have educational resources available for those who want to help friends or family find help.
