Why Support the Arizona Construction Hike for Hope?

According to the CDC's data on suicide risk, the occupational groups, the construction and extraction industries were found to have the highest rate of suicide in the United States. The goals of this partnership are to improve the mental health of construction workers through affective suicide prevention education, intervention and postvention strategies, to encourage, equip and empower mental health champions in the workplace. Visit afsp.org/construction for more information.

We invite all to join us, you don't need to be part of the construction industry to participate in the hike!

The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention leads the fight to stop suicide. Funds raised from the Construction Hike for Hope allows AFSP to invest in research, create educational programs, advocate for public policy, and support survivors of suicide loss. Build your brand's goodwill by supporting a cause everyone can get behind.

Our participants are passionate supporters of AFSP's mission to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide, with 78% of online registrants indicating a personal investment in prevention.

We'd love your support. Sponsor and show our community you're a voice for suicide prevention. Contact Gina Gillis ggillis@afsp.org for more information or call 520-367-7905.

Join us to save lives and bring hope to members of the Construction Industry and their friends and family.
