Walk for Resilience 5K Run/Walk
The Walk for Resilience is a community-centered mental health event hosted by Carmel’s Depression & Anxiety Wellness Foundation (CDAWF). The event is an inclusive 5K run/walk held in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NY. Participants may walk, jog, or run at their own pace; the event emphasizes togetherness and a supportive environment for normalizing conversations about depression and anxiety.
Proceeds support CDAWF’s mental health education, wellness programming, and community outreach. Funds raised help provide resources, coping tools, and access to support for individuals and families affected by depression and anxiety. The event welcomes individuals, teams, youth, seniors, and first-time 5K participants.
Amenities include a professionally timed course with bibs, warm-up and cool-down activities, water and light snacks, DJ and sound support, a community resource presence, port-a-potties, bag drop, live/text/email results, and free finish-line photos. A personalized bib is available for those who register three weeks in advance. Awards are given to the top three men and top three women overall and to the top 100 finishers.
Bib pickup is handled by event staff starting one hour before the event; a bib number is required for pickup. Last-minute registrants within 24 hours receive their bib number by text shortly after registering. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
