Every step leaves an impression. Who are you walking for?
We Walk on Wednesday
This Suicide Prevention Month, LIUNA Midwest Region We Walk on Wednesday returns for our 2026 Virtual Walk.
In 2024, our industry lost 5,008 construction brothers and sisters to suicide, and across our Midwest region, 11,273 lives were lost to suicide. These aren’t just numbers—they are our co-workers, family members, neighbors, and friends.
Whether you’re lacing up work boots on the jobsite or walking shoes in your neighborhood, you can walk with us in remembrance.
How to participate:
- Move Your Way: Walk, run, roll, ride, or swim anytime on Wednesdays throughout the month of September.
- Personalize Your Tribute (optional): Download and print our official 2026 Boot Print sign and write the name of the person you are honoring.
- Share Your Moment: Snap a photo of your walk, your boots, or your printable sign and post with #WeWalkOnWednesday2026, #LIUNAWalks, and #StepUpForMentalHealth.
(Note: Sharing a photo or carrying a sign is completely optional—your participation and support are what matter most.)

You do not have to carry the weight alone. Help is available 24/7 by calling or texting 988.
