SEPTEMBER IS SUICIDE PREVENTION MONTH
Suicide is Preventable.
Suicide
Prevention
Month

Here are five steps you can take to help a veteran in emotional pain:

  • Start The Conversation: “Are you thinking about killing yourself?” It’s not an easy question to ask, but it could save the life of an at-risk person.
  • Keep Them Safe: Remove access to guns, pills or other lethal items.
  • Be There: Listen carefully. Learn what the person is thinking or feeling.
  • Help Them Connect: For an immediate crisis, call the 988 Suicide or Crisis Lifeline. Then make a referral to professional services including the Road Home Program and others.
  • Stay Connected: Staying in touch after a crisis. Studies show the number of suicides goes down when someone follows up with an at-risk person.
