The GRAHAM ​

​ (Green Route Aiding Healthy Adaptation and Mitigation) is
​SOA's awareness-raising walk and the successor for Canada to Key West.

In October 2023, SOA founder Dr. Marcalee Alexander will continue her walk
down the East Coast, documenting her trip along the way. We invite you to follow along
​on social media and support The GRAHAM by donating below. 

The GRAHAM is a tribute to Graham Alexander, who was passionate about the outdoors and its benefits regarding inner peace and mental health. The GRAHAM emphasizes how an accessible, healthy outdoors helps people of all ages and abilities stay healthy – both physically and mentally – and how community can support both mental health awareness and climate justice for people with and without disabilities. 

​​Dr. Marcalee Alexander documented her first journey from Canada to Key West on social media, raising awareness about climate, health, and disability along the way. Events like The GRAHAM help grow our movement by educating the public and inspiring them to work for change. We are looking forward to a successful, transformative journey!
