CHECK OUT OUR UPCOMING EVENTS
Suicide Prevention month might be coming to an end, but the conversation is just beginning! Changing the narrative on suicide is about transforming how we perceive this complex issue and shifting from a culture of silence and stigma to one of openness, understanding, and support. We invite you to our very first ConnerStrong Casino Night Gala Fundraiser at The River View at Occoquan, in Lorton Virginia on November 15th.
The goal of this unique event is to bring together friends, family and leaders in the community to raise funding for our Sources of Strength Suicide Prevention Program, and to learn how this program helps change the dialogue about mental health and suicide, helps students in our community schools feel supported and encourage help-seeking behavior or coping techniques.
ConnerStrong is proud to have funded the training and implementation of the Sources of Strength Program into over two dozen local elementary, middle and high schools, meaning that over 36,000 students have access to peer-led mental health support and education.
Take a chance with our Casino Style Table Games, from Blackjack to Roulette, Poker to Craps, we’ve got all your favorite games ready to play. Each guest will start out with $1500 in play money to try their luck with. And enjoy a delicious buffet style dinner with options for everyone and desserts galore. Bid on exclusive items and experiences in our silent auction, or take your chances in our thrilling raffle for a chance to win some fantastic prizes.
Dress Code for the evening is Black Tie Optional!
We look forward to a wonderful event and hope you will consider joining us.
