Supporting your
Veteran Loved One
Friday, June 12th @ 10am
This webinar explores the unique ways our Veterans struggle and how their loved ones can anticipate those challenges and support them when needed. We break down three specific categories that have the power to increase or decrease a person's risk of suicide: lethal means, mental health, and social connection. We will discuss social connection in depth and identify how exactly support for your Veteran loved one can prove to be the most impactful thing in preventing suicide. Specific steps that support systems can take to protect their loved ones will be discussed as well as resources for when they feel there's nothing else they can do.
