Voices of Healing

Come join us at the SSGT Willie de Leon Civic Center for an evening of inspiration and hope. Voices of Healing presents Kevin Hines to share his story of overcoming adversity and finding strength in the face of challenges. Through his story, Kevin has developed a connection of hope and courage between life and death for people caught in the pain of living with serious mental illness, difficult life circumstances, and more. His invigorating honesty, activism, and understanding of the complex surroundings that contribute to mental illness and suicide have aided those who have lived through the darkness of societal stigma and discrimination.

Info: Join us before the main event to learn about some of the amazing resources available in our community.

Info: Join us for an evening of delicious food, fun conversations, and genuine connection. Let's break bread together and strengthen the bonds that make our community special.

Info: Kevin Hines is a suicide survivor and mental health advocate. At age 19, he jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, a suicide attempt that has claimed over a thousand lives since the bridge was built in 1937. Miraculously, Kevin is one of only 36 to survive, and in almost 19 years since his nearly fatal attempt, he has become the voice for many mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, children, spouses, friends, and loved ones who have experienced similar attempts to end their suffering. Some are left behind, wondering why and what they could have done to help.

Info: Have a question for Kevin? This is your opportunity to ask him any burning questions you might have.

Info: Meet Kevin Hines in person to thank him for taking time out of his busy schedule to educate our community on the importance of mental health.
