In observance of National Suicide Prevention Month, this audio features a conversation with Vu Tran, the walk chair for the Out of the Darkness Walk in Hartford. The event is scheduled for Saturday, September 26th at Dunkin' Park, with gates opening at 2:00 PM and the walk beginning at 3:00 PM. Tran discusses the importance of raising funds and awareness, noting that proceeds support free educational programs such as "More Than Sad" for schools and caregivers. The discussion highlights national suicide trends, attributing increases to factors like economic stress, post-pandemic socialization challenges, and online bullying affecting younger demographics.
