3.1 miles for mental health

Stomp Out the Stigma is an annual 5k run/walk that supports the mission of New Hope Clubhouse and, more importantly, helps to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental illness. Thank you to everyone who participated in our 2026 event!

About New Hope Clubhouse

Northeastern Center’s New Hope Clubhouse is a program for adults living with mental illness, helping members regain the confidence and self-esteem needed to live and work in their communities. With opportunities for skill development, employment, socialization, and more, members can find purpose, build relationships and lead normal, productive lives.

Clubhouse is located in Kendallville, but serves adults from DeKalb, LaGrange, Noble and Steuben counties. It is accredited by the International Center for Clubhouse Development and is one of over 300 clubhouses worldwide breaking the cycle of social isolation that is so common among adults with mental illness.

Proceeds from the race go toward the Clubhouse educational fund as well as social outings and other member projects. Thank you for supporting New Hope Clubhouse and helping us Stomp Out the Stigma!
