Make an impact. Have fun. Support mental health awareness.

The Walking Tall Movement is a nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness about mental health and providing resources for those affected by trauma, stress, and life challenges. Founded by two survivors of mass shootings and a licensed psychologist, we strive to inspire healing, hope, and strength in our communities.
