The sudden end to the U.S. military’s engagement in Afghanistan rightfully raised concerns for veterans, but the mental health of those who serve has long been a reason for worry. In fact, VA recently reported there are over 17 veteran suicides daily.
With September being Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, there’s no better time than now to check in with the veterans in your life to ensure they are doing well.
At Three Wire Systems, our MyAdvisor division (formerly VetAdvisor) helps military and non-military personnel navigate wellness resources, and our crisis center is accredited by the American Association of Suicidology.
