Des Moines One Million Steps for OCD Walk

One Million Steps for OCD Walk is an annual event that brings together members of the OCD and related disorders community nationwide to challenge stigma, raise funds, and create awareness about what it really means to have obsessive compulsive disorder.

Last year, our 2024 walk welcomed 189 walkers and community members at Gray’s Lake in Des Moines. With your help, we raised over $12,800 to support OCD and related disorders research, advocacy, and community support initiatives here in Iowa!
