About the Campaign
ILLUMINATING THE PATHWAY TO MENTAL HEALTH RECOVERY
Our mission is to encourage the acceptance of mental disease as readily as physical disease and to eradicate the stigmas associated with diagnosis and behaviors resulting from mental illness.
Join us September 9th at Warren S. Magnuson Park, Seattle, WA for our 7th Annual Zia Larson Ray of Light Foundation Walk Run. Can't make it in person? Just select the virtual option to participate in your own neighborhood or park.
