👂Listen Without Judgment

10/15/2026

💜 PURPLE THURSDAY 💜

October 15 is Purple Thursday—a day to wear purple, show support for survivors, and help bring domestic violence out of the shadows.

But awareness is only the beginning.

Let's turn awareness into action.

Wear purple.
Start a conversation.
Check in with someone you care about.
Learn the signs of abuse.
Know your local resources.
Support survivors without judgment.

And remember: you don't have to wait for someone to ask for help before offering connection.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, TESSA provides free and confidential support 24/7.

📞 TESSA Safeline: (719) 633-3819

If you're experiencing a mental health or su***de crisis—or you're worried about someone else:

📱 Call or text 988

Awareness leads to change. Connection creates hope.

💜 With survivors, always.

It Starts With Me.

📸 **RAS 2026 PHOTO CALL!** 📸

We need YOUR help! ❤️

Our official photographer was under the weather and wasn’t able to join us for the Race Against Su***de this year—which means we’re missing some of those amazing moments that made RAS 2026 so special.

But we know **YOU were there… and you captured the memories!** 🙌

🏃‍♀️ Crossing the finish line
💙 Friends showing up for friends
🌳 Our Reading of the Names & Tree Planting
🎉 The energy, smiles, teams & community
🫶 The moments we may have missed

**Help us build our RAS 2026 photo album!**

📲 Drop your favorite RAS 2026 photos in the comments or send them to us via DM. We’d love to see them—and with your permission, share them as we celebrate this incredible community.

You showed up. You showed out. You helped raise nearly **$50,000** to support su***de prevention in the Pikes Peak Region.

Now help us capture the story. 💙

**Got photos? SEND. THEM. OUR. WAY!** 📸

💙 **Pikes Peak Region, YOU SHOWED UP AND SHOWED OUT!** 💙

What an incredible day at **Race Against Su***de 2026!** 🏃‍♀️💜

Hundreds of you came together to walk, run, remember, honor, and stand for something bigger than ourselves. You showed up for loved ones we carry in our hearts, for those who are struggling, for those who have lost someone to su***de, and for a future where no one has to face their darkest moments alone.

And together, we raised **$50,000 to support the life-saving work of Su***de Prevention Partnership (SPP)!** 🎉

Every dollar raised stays right here in our community, supporting su***de prevention education, intervention, and postvention services throughout the Pikes Peak Region. Your generosity helps us create connections, provide resources, and remind people that hope is always within reach.

To every participant, sponsor, donor, volunteer, community partner, vendor, and fundraiser — **THANK YOU.** You are the reason this work continues. You are the reminder that this community cares. And you are proof that when we come together, we can make a difference.

💙 Together, we are creating hope.
💜 Together, we are building connection.
🩵 Together, we are changing lives.

This is what community looks like. This is what hope feels like. And this is why **It Starts With Me.**

We can't wait to do it again. Until then, keep showing up for one another. You never know whose life you might change.

Small actions can create a big sense of belonging. Walking with someone, even for a few minutes, can make their day feel less overwhelming.

🌸 Thank you to Rachel, Kelci, and Zoe at Jenkins MS for inviting us to bring Spray the Love to your school! A big thank you to all the staff for being so welcoming and helping make this event possible.

It was wonderful connecting with students across all grade levels and seeing everyone participate in this meaningful project. Jenkins MS is a great example of what means by advocating for mental health, raising awareness, and normalizing conversations around su***de prevention.

We look forward to continuing our partnership and spreading the message of LOVE! 💛 Jenkins Middle School
