Welcome to Jerry's Walk!
We are a non-profit organization established to remember those who were lost to suicide. Our goal is to end the silence and stigma surrounding suicide and depression while raising money for suicide prevention programs in the Ohio Valley area.
International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day 2020
Today is International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day 2020. Each year this day is in honor of survivors of suicide loss. We take this day to remember those who have died by suicide, but also those who have survived that loss. Because of the ongoing Covid-19 health crisis, Jerry's Walk is not able to host an in-person event to mark the day but, we are providing a link to the Speaking Grief website which contains resources as well as a documentary (see below) on grief of suicide survivors.
