Story Walk graphic 1

Explore stories of resilience and hope with our Your Story Your Strength Story Walk! This engaging experience features a series of posters displayed at participating downtown Cedar Rapids businesses. Each poster highlights a well-known public figure—some historic, some current—who has faced mental health challenges or become an advocate for mental wellness.

As you walk from location to location, you’ll discover inspiring quotes and short reflections that remind us how powerful it is to share our stories. Whether you’re out on your lunch break or enjoying a weekend downtown, the Story Walk offers a meaningful way to support mental health and connect with your community.
