COURSE

MORE ABOUT THE EVENT

The Walk for Resilience 5K Run/Walk is a community-centered mental health event hosted by Carmel’s Depression & Anxiety Wellness Foundation (CDAWF). This inclusive 5K brings together walkers, runners, families, and supporters to raise awareness for depression and anxiety while promoting movement, connection, and healing.

Designed for all fitness levels, participants may walk, jog, or run at their own pace. The event focuses on togetherness rather than competition, creating a supportive environment where mental health conversations are normalized and encouraged.

Proceeds from the Walk for Resilience support CDAWF’s ongoing mental health education, wellness programming, and community outreach initiatives. Funds raised help provide resources, coping tools, and access to support for individuals and families affected by depression and anxiety.

This event welcomes individuals, teams, youth, seniors, and first-time 5K participants. Whether you are honoring your own journey, supporting a loved one, or standing in solidarity for mental health awareness, your participation makes a meaningful impact.
