In a crisis or worried about someone? Call or text 988.
Start the conversation. Help save a life.
Race to Stop Suicide uses the reach of motorsports to put one life-saving message in front of millions: it is okay to talk, it is okay to ask for help, and help is available through 988.
We are not mental healthcare professionals. We connect people to conversation, education, and trusted resources.
A national stage for a life-saving message

Built from one conversation and driven by a responsibility to act.
“We chose racing because it gives us a platform people pay attention to. When that attention can help one person speak up, check on someone, or call 988, we have to use it.”
— Randy Dye, Founder
Race to Stop Suicide began after a meeting with Halifax Health opened the door to a much bigger conversation. Randy Dye saw how deeply suicide and mental health struggles affect families, schools, veterans, workplaces, sports, and communities.
His response was direct: use the professional racing platform to make the message impossible to miss.
Today, Race to Stop Suicide brings that message to racetracks, classrooms, community events, national broadcasts, and the road—always pointing people toward real help and reminding them they are not alone.
This is not a campaign that belongs to one driver, one family, or one organization. It affects all of us, and all of us can be part of the solution.

R.A.C.E. with us.
Four clear ways we use motorsports and community partnerships to get people talking, looking out for one another, and connected to help.
Real Talk
Make it okay to say, “I’m not okay,” and create room for honest conversations without shame.
Awareness
Put 988 and trusted crisis resources where people will see them—on tracks, vehicles, broadcasts, and in communities.
Community
Bring partners together around a message that strengthens connection and reminds people to check on each other.
Engagement
Give people practical ways to participate, learn the warning signs, and take action when someone may be at risk.
March to Stop Suicide
A community comes together to remember, support, speak openly, and move forward with hope.
Every step says: you are not alone.
The March to Stop Suicide is the signature event of Race to Stop Suicide. It brings families, friends, veterans, first responders, racing fans, businesses, and community partners together around one clear message: we can talk about suicide, we can look out for one another, and help is available.
The day creates space to honor lives, support those who are struggling, share 988, and turn care into action.
Important dates. Simple ways to take action.
These moments give every visitor a reason to pause, check on someone, share 988, and help make mental health conversations part of everyday life.
Mental Health Awareness Month
Use the month to start honest conversations, learn the signs that someone may need support, and remind people that asking for help is a sign of strength.
Suicide Prevention Month
A month to share 988, check on the people in your life, and make it easier for someone to say, “I need help.”
