As leaders in the industry, it is important that we show our commitment to mental health awareness and support our employees, subcontractors and business partners who may be struggling.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s Hike for Hope brought together over 400 participants and raised over $100,000 to support AFSP\u2019s critical mission. It was truly incredible seeing so many people come together to spread hope and fight the stigma often associated with mental health issues.
