What is Walk & Talk for Hope?

Walk and Talk for Hope on November 30th is our initiative to promote mental wellness through movement and conversation. Our annual walk brings together community members to foster support, connection, and open dialogue around mental health.

Overall, we hope to inspire others to
Walk & Talk Often!

Why walking & talking helps your mental health

Boosts Mood: Walking increases endorphins, improves mood, and reduces symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Increases Social Connection: Talking especially in nature, can lower stress levels, provide emotional release, and strengthen bonds.

Cognitive Benefits: Research shows that even a 10-30 minute walk outside can significantly improve mental well-being.

Why do you Walk & Talk?

We participate in Honor Connor's Walk & Talk for Hope to stop the stigma around discussing feelings of hopelessness, helplessness, stress and grief that are too often bottled up.

Walking and talking with others, I hope to gain insight and understanding into what we can collectively do to alleviate the mental health burdens that are afflicting so many of today’s youth.
Dr. Wayne Johnson
We Walk & Talk as a family in honor of our son Austin and to have healthy conversations about grief and loss.
