Sidewalks outside Eastern State Hospital managed by UK HealthCare were transformed into colorful pathways of hope during the recent “Chalk the Walk” event.

The gathering brought together staff and community members to share uplifting messages in recognition of national Su***de Prevention Day and the 12th anniversary of the opening of the Eastern State Hospital Chandler Kentucky Recovery Center.

Organized through the UK HealthCare Healthy Kentucky Initiative, the event encouraged participants to write positive affirmations and information about the 988 Su***de and Crisis Lifeline.

“It was inspiring to see both staff and community members cover our sidewalks with messages of encouragement, compassion and connection,” said Marc Woods, chief nursing officer at Eastern State Hospital. “The event showed how deeply our ESH/CKRC family cares, not only for each other, but also for anyone who might be struggling. Staff shared how meaningful it felt to contribute words of hope, knowing they might make a difference for someone passing by. The support from the wider community made the event even more powerful, reinforcing that su***de prevention is truly everyone’s mission.”
