Organizers want to removed the stigma of suicide and open the discussion between people if they need help with their mental health.  

On Friday night, Ohio State campuses, including OSU Lima, came together and walked to raise awareness about a topic that many find difficult to talk about. Fellow Buckeyes at OSU Lima walked around the Quad for the "Out of the Darkness" campus walk to honor the lives lost and affected by suicide and mental illness while displaying fellowship, camaraderie, and support for those currently struggling. The annual walk is organized by the Ohio State Suicide Prevention Program and collaborated with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Many of Friday night's walkers have been affected in some way by suicide and mental health, and there is one particular message of hope they want to share.
