New Vitae Wellness and Recovery at the 2016 NAMI Lehigh Valley Run/Walk

September 20, 2016

New Vitae Wellness and Recovery was proud to have been a Silver Sponsor for the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Lehigh Valley's 5K Run/Walk for 2016!  Our staff and residents have participated in many of NAMI's past walks to support NAMI Lehigh Valley in their mission to increase awareness and support of individuals and families who experience behavioral health challenges.  Over 20 members of the New Vitae community participated in the 2016 Run/Walk!

The event took place on Saturday, September 17th in Bicentennial Park, located in East Allen Township in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.  The day's agenda included live music, food, and raffle prizes.  Participants shared camaraderie and support to reach the finish line.  All walkers and runners received gift bags with T-shirts and raffle tickets for fantastic prizes, and an award ceremony celebrated the racers with the fastest times.
