About this race

 
Join Search for Change, Run 4 Recovery, Drug Crisis in our Backyard and The Alliance for Safe Kids (ASK) for the 12th Annual Run for Recovery 5K Run/Walk.

Participating in our Run for Recovery 5K run/walk is a powerful way to raise awareness and celebrate recovery from substance use disorders and mental health conditions.

Each step symbolizes hope and resilience, honoring those who have overcome challenges. The event unites individuals, breaks stigma, and empowers others to seek help.  Crossing the finish line gives a feeling of accomplishment, knowing you have made a difference.  Recovery is possible, and together, we can inspire change.

Participants are also encouraged to create a personal fundraiser and start a team to help expand the impact of this event.

Fundraising is a meaningful way to honor a loved one, celebrate recovery, support prevention efforts, or advocate for mental health awareness.

Teams can bring together family members, friends, coworkers, schools, organizations, or recovery communities to walk or run together in support of hope and healing. Every dollar raised helps support vital programs, education, prevention, and recovery resources in our community.

We are excited to once again offer our on-site Save A Life Wellness Fair, providing attendees with access to crucial resources and information. Our virtual tool is also available to connect the public to essential resources year-round.
