ABOUT JAY WALKERS Jay Walkers gets its name from Jay Gallagher, who lost his life to suicide in 2016 at the age of 18. Jay had so much life to live and so much love to give, yet the stigma of suicide prevented him from asking for the help he knew he needed. By participating in Jay Walkers, teams will do their part to break down stigma and become life-affirming activists for suicide prevention. For more information, check out our website at www.jay-walkers.org Jay Walkers is committed to making The Challenge accessible to all participants. *FREE REGISTRATIONS* are available! Thanks to the generosity of a Jay Walkers donor, we have FREE REGISTRATIONS available for those who need them.

The Jay Walkers Challenge is an annual steps challenge to inspire action for suicide prevention. During the month of September, teams of Jay Walkers from all around the world commit to completing 800,000 steps -- that's one step in honor of every life lost worldwide annually to suicide. In addition, we encourage individuals to: START CONVERSATIONS about suicide with friends, family, and others to break down stigma and strengthen the suicide safety net in your circles; RAISE FUNDS to support suicide prevention measures that work; and we are excited to work with you to make a difference in your community; RECRUIT NEW JAY WALKERS Help grow the Jay Walkers community and spread the word that Everyone can take steps to end suicide! ------------------------- ABOUT PEER-TO-PEER FUNDRAISING Peer-to-peer (P2P) fundraising is vital to the Jay Walkers Challenge mission and is dedicated to funding evidence-based suicide prevention measures. From funds raised in 2025, Jay Walkers was able to train clinicians in Crisis Response Planning (CRP) and teachers in the Pax Good Behavior Game. Your fun
