Each year offers opportunities to raise awareness about BDD and OCD—the 1 Million Steps 4 OCD Awareness Walk, the Annual OCD Conference, and OCD Awareness Week. Each involvement makes publicly visible these invisible brain disorders that cripple the lives of sufferers, their families, and friends. Collectively as a society, we are as healthy as the hardest hit of our members, so we’ve got work to do. To remove the stigma of brain disorders and to help cure them, we invite you to get involved: become a member of the International OCD Foundation, be an OCDvocate, volunteer, organize/attend a fundraising event, or make a donation.
The 1 Million Steps 4 OCD Awareness Walk was created in 2013, the year after my pilgrimage from Cheyney, PA to Boston, MA in memory of Nathaniel, a 525-mile journey by foot. Like the original, this annual walk event builds community and raises awareness, funds, and hope. This year, we want to see how many million steps we can walk for OCD awareness together.
