Together, we can Tackle The Stigma. 💚
The Shepherd Hill Cheerleading program and the DCRSD community invite you to join us for Tackle The Stigma, a community Run/Walk dedicated to promoting mental
health awareness and supporting vital mental health initiatives. This impactful event will take place on Sunday, September 27 at 10:00 a.m. at Shepherd Hill Regional High School.
Why We Run/Walk
Tackle The Stigma was created to raise both funds and awareness for mental health support services. Every step taken helps break down barriers, encourage open conversations, and ensure individuals struggling with mental health challenges can access the support they need without fear or stigma.
Whether you choose to walk, run, or simply cheer from the sidelines, your presence makes a difference. Together, we can show our community that mental health matters and that no one has to face their struggles alone.
All proceeds from the Run/Walk will be donated to JAK-L and Brake the Silence, two local organizations that share our mission of supporting mental health awareness and services.
Spread the Word
We welcome participants of all ages and backgrounds to take part in this community event. Attendees can also enjoy local vendors, food trucks, raffles, and more throughout the day.
Help us make Tackle The Stigma a success by sharing this event with your friends, family, and community. Together, we can make a lasting impact.
