Join the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s National Capital Area Chapter for this annual memorial dedicated to the 800,000+ lives lost each year to suicide.

We invite you to remember these individuals and all who have been impacted by suicide at this important community event. From 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM, personalized luminarias made by our <a href="https://afsp.org/Loudoun" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Loudoun Out of the Darkness</a> Walk participants and other loss survivors will be displayed at Mervin Jackson Park. During that time, visitors to the memorial will also have the opportunity to create your own personal luminaria on-site and add it to the display.
