Breaking Down the Stigma Addiction and Mental Awareness 5K

The Breaking Down the Stigma Addiction and Mental Awareness 5K, sponsored by NewVista Behavioral Health, takes place at Black River Landing in Lorain, Ohio. This event includes a chip-timed 5K run/walk and a 1-mile untimed fun run/walk, both designed to honor lives lost to drug overdose and raise awareness about addiction and mental health. Participants receive a race t-shirt, finisher ribbon, and a food voucher for food trucks.

Awards are given to top finishers in various categories. The event fosters a supportive atmosphere, welcoming dogs on short leashes and encouraging community involvement in this important cause. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
