Why You Should Walk ... 

- In the United States a person dies by suicide every 16 minutes, claiming over 30,000 lives each year. 

- From 1998 to 2009, suicide took the lives of 3,991 San Diegans 

- Suicide is the second leading cause of non-natural deaths for all ages in San Diego County. 

When you participate in the Save A Life San Diego Community Walk, your tax-deductible contribution supports the special partnership between Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Program®, San Diego Chapter, and Survivors of Suicide Loss-San Diego. 

This strengthens our suicide outreach and prevention programs and survivor support services for all San Diegans. 

You are also helping to reduce the stigma associated with mental illness and suicide.
