Honor Beads, you'll notice many people wearing beads. This is what the beads mean. For many, the Out of the Darkness Overnight is a journey of remembrance – a time to acknowledge the ways in which suicide and depression have affected our lives and the lives of our loved ones. To recognize each individuals connection to the cause, we wear honor beads through the event. Honor bead colors signify: You’ve lost a child = White, You’ve lost a spouse or partner = Red, You’ve lost a parent = Gold, You’ve lost a sibling = Orange, You’ve lost a relative or friend = Purple, You’ve struggled personally = Green, You support the cause = Blue.
