Thank you to everyone around the world who walked for Post-Intensive Care Syndrome during the month of September 2024.
In total, close to 1,000 people walked to raise awareness of PICS and celebrate survivorship, either at one of 14 host sites or at home with family or friends.
We have organized a simple walk of any number of miles to challenge our bodies while raising awareness of this complicated syndrome. Individuals can walk anywhere in the world, either on their own or with loved ones. It is our desire that every ICU survivor living with PICS knows they are not alone and that there is hope and support for their journey.
If you can’t walk on September 28, walk on any day in September. Walk wherever you are for as far as you are able.
Thank you to the organizations and individuals who hosted walks in 2024. Stay tuned for 2025 walk locations.
