Climb Out of The Darkness

All parents, families and friends are invited to participate in their local Climb Out of the Darkness®. In Rutland, the event will be held at Rutland Recreation Community Center, June 26th at 10 am. Participants must register prior to the event at Causevox. Climb Out of the Darkness® is the world’s largest event raising awareness of maternal mental health disorders such as postpartum depression (PPD), anxiety, OCD and psychosis. As part of the Climb, survivors all over the world climb, hike or walk together at a local mountain or park to symbolize their collective rise out of the darkness as well as to raise funds for Postpartum Support International, a nonprofit organization providing support for families and specialized training for providers. This event will feature raffles and prizes, kids' activities provided by Building Bright Futures, and guest speakers.
