Shepherd University Candlelight Vigil for Suicide Prevention on September 17th

Join us for a heartfelt Candlelight Vigil for Suicide Prevention on Tuesday, September 17, from 6:30pm to 7:30pm at Midway Lawn. This important event, sponsored by Shepherd University Counseling Services, the Program Board, and Rams Care, aims to unite our community in memory of those we have lost and to support those who are struggling.

The vigil will be held in partnership with the Brian O'Neill Jr. Foundation, Morgan's Message, the Eastern Panhandle Empowerment Center, and Title IX. Together, we will shine a light of hope and solidarity in the fight against suicide. This gathering is an opportunity to reflect, honor, and stand together in our commitment to preventing suicide and supporting mental health.
