Join us for The Stay 5k Walk — a community walk for Mental Health Awareness & Suicide Prevention.

August 23 - 2 p.m. - 4 p.m.

Batiquitos Lagoon - 7380 Gabiano Ln, Carlsbad

This event marks the exciting launch of The Belonging Lab, a new wellness & mental health space in North County.

All proceeds directly support:

- Youth mental health advocacy programs in schools

- Art programs that promote healing and expression

- The soon-to-open Stay Café in Carlsbad — a safe space for events, community, and support

Post-Walk Art Activity - connect, create, and reflect after the walk.

Let's walk for hope. Let's walk for healing. Let's walk for the people who need us to stay.
