DOTHAN, Ala. (WDNews) — The Uncarried, a new grassroots community movement in the Wiregrass, will host its first Monthly Come Together event on Sunday, November 9, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the P.E.I.R. Building, 1930 Wise Drive in Dothan.
The inaugural gathering’s theme, “Breaking the Silence,” encourages open, shame-free conversations about suicide and emotional pain. Organizers say the goal is to create safe spaces for honest dialogue and human connection — reminding community members that they don’t have to carry their struggles alone.
“The Uncarried was created to make it safer for people to talk about emotional pain — especially the kind that can lead to silence, isolation, or despair,” the organization said. “We believe silence can be deadly, and connection can save lives.”
The Come Together gatherings are not therapy sessions, but community-based discussions that promote healing, understanding, and courage. Each month will explore a new theme related to mental wellness, connection, and hope.
Anyone affected by suicide, loss, or emotional hardship — or anyone who simply wants to support a culture of honesty and compassion — is invited to attend.
