Audacy Presenting 10th Annual “I’m Listening” Campaign

Audacy is bringing its 10th annual mental health broadcast special “I’m Listening” to listeners nationwide this month in recognition of National Suicide Prevention Month and World Suicide Prevention Day (9/10). The program will air across Audacy’s portfolio of radio stations between Tuesday, September 8 and Sunday, September img13. It will feature artists, newsmakers and mental health professionals in honest and meaningful conversations about mental health, emotional well-being and the importance of speaking openly and listening without judgment. Audacy SVP of programming Dave Richards says, “Nearly a decade after we first launched ‘I’m Listening,’ the need for honest conversations about mental health has never been more important. Every year, we’re reminded of the power of simply creating space for people to listen, share their experiences, and know they’re not alone. We’re proud to bring this important program back to our audiences nationwide and continue using the reach and intimacy of audio to connect people with stories, resources and hope.”
