From the Organizer
Join us on Saturday, October 17, 2026, for the 6th Annual Overdose Lifeline Outpacing the Stigma 5K Run/Walk. Together, we'll honor the lives of those we've lost to overdose, support individuals and families affected by substance use disorder, and raise funds for Heart Rock Justus Family Recovery Center.
Every person lost to overdose leaves behind parents, children, siblings, friends, and entire communities. This 5K is about honoring those lives while helping more families heal together.
Every registration helps keep moms and babies together while they heal. Since opening in 2022, Heart Rock has served more than 89 moms and 45 babies, providing recovery support, stable housing, and hope for families working toward a healthier future.
Create a fundraising team in honor or memory of someone you love, and invite friends, family, or coworkers to join your team or support your fundraising page. Every dollar raised helps more moms and babies build healthier futures together.
Whether you run, walk, volunteer, cheer from the sidelines, or fundraise, thank you for helping create healthier, safer communities.
$1,500 provides one month of housing and recovery support for a mom.
$1,000 provides one month of housing and essential supplies for a baby.
$750 provides a year's supply of diapers.
$150 sponsors a Child Advocate.
$75 provides a hygiene basket for a mom.
$50 provides a hygiene basket for a baby.
