Good morning,
I’m reaching out again on behalf of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Mental Health and Suicide Prevention (OMHSP) to invite you to share the VA suicide prevention resources for Veterans on your website, newsletter, and social media pages.
My hope is that you can regularly share VA content and encourage Veterans and their families to use the resources and care which are there for them.
Here are some links, which I’m hoping you’ll find helpful:
