Platoon 22

At Platoon 22, we are working to combat the ever-rising veteran suicide rate. Each day, more than 20 of our veterans are lost to suicide. To combat these numbers, civic engagement is key. Our mission is to end veteran suicide through the successful reintegration of service members and their families by assembling critical resources, providing peer support, and developing transitional programs. Our goal is to show people that it’s not just about having PTSD or PTS, it’s about having PTSG, which is post traumatic growth. Not only can you survive post suicide attempt, or post-depression. If you learn how to navigate it, you can actually thrive. www.platoon22.org.
