2023-10-03 12:00 - 13:00, 2023-11-07 18:00 - 19:00 (America/New_York)
Often mental health and mental illness are misunderstood by individuals due to lack of knowledge, stigma associated with mental illness, and avoidance of conversations regarding mental health and wellness. It is important to understand that everyone has mental health, but not everyone is diagnosed with a mental illness. Understanding the scope of suicide among veterans and recognizing risk factors to administer immediate intervention is crucial to supporting veterans suffering with experience-related mental health challenges.
