Thank You for your participation in the
Virtual Overnight Experience
Watch the Virtual Overnight Experience Program below
Thank you for joining us for the first Virtual Overnight Experience and welcome! We know this Overnight season was nothing like what we expected it to be when we launched this year's Overnight Walk. This is the first time we have ever held a virtual event, so this is just as new to us as it is to you. Thank you for your passion and dedication to The Overnight, AFSP, and suicide prevention. You are the reason we can bring hope to those affected by suicide.
Stay Involved:
We encourage you to stay involved with The Overnight Community, as well as with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
- Save your spot for the 2021 Overnight Walk and be the first to learn the 2021 details when they become available.
- Find your local AFSP Chapter to prevent suicide in your local community.
One of the biggest differences of hosting a Virtual Overnight Experience is not having our community to hold our hands and hug us. Though you are never alone, we are experiencing the Virtual Overnight Experience in our homes, rather than out on the route, together. These resources are available and we are here for you.
- AFSP.org:
- Resources if you are struggling.
- Resources if you have lost a loved one.
- Mental health and COVID-19
- TheOvernight.org:
- Crisis Text Line:
- Text TALK to 741741
- National Suicide Prevention Lifeline:
- Dial 800-273-8255
