I'm walking in solidarity this October to raise awareness for Mental Health and suicide across the country. A cause close to my heart, I will carry with me thoughts for the families and communities that have lost loved ones way too soon to suicide. For all those suffering with PTSD, Depression and Anxiety as a direct result of their work in the frontline as First Responders, you are not alone. Your work in the community is critical, but your life and what you mean to the people around you is more important. I stand with you, your families and your community
