Kyndal Edwards, a recovering addict, is currently on a journey walking across America to raise awareness for mental health. He has been walking for 512 days and has already covered almost 4,800 miles. Edwards hopes that his journey will inspire others to overcome addiction and prioritize their mental health.
As he travels from Florida to Washington and then plans to hit all four corners of the United States, Edwards wants to reach out to those struggling with mental health issues, depression, or addiction. He wants them to know that he cares and loves them, even if he may not know them personally. Edwards is on a mission to spread positivity and support to those in need.
Next on his route, Edwards plans to head to San Diego before walking back to Florida. From there, he will travel up the coast to Maine, completing his journey across America. He hopes that his trek will serve as a beacon of hope and inspiration for those facing mental health challenges.
