Hope Rising Virtual Suicide Prevention Summit

Hope Rising Virtual Suicide Prevention Summit

12-hour event on September 26th – free registration https://www.hoperising.one/

Hope Rising needs you to mobilize your networks to spread the word about their PREVENTS Pledge to REACH and to encourage Veterans in your communities to take a survey that will provide invaluable information as they implement the PREVENTS Roadmap and save lives.

• The PREVENTS Pledge to REACH Drive:  They want everyone to take the PREVENTS Pledge to REACH!  If you haven’t already done so, please take the pledge and challenge your family, friends, colleagues, neighbors and social media followers to take it as well.  Post that you have taken the pledge and post on social media. Challenge those you know – everyone should take this pledge to save lives!  Please see the attached social media toolkit for recommended posts and other ideas.
• PREVENTS Veteran Survey:   As you know, suicide disproportionately affects those who serve in our Nation’s armed forces.  PREVENTS is seeking information from Veterans that will help guide us in implementing the recommendations of the PREVENTS Roadmap. If you are a Veteran, please fill out the survey, or reach out to Veterans in your family and networks using the attached flyer and social media kit.
• If you have any questions on PREVENTS, please contact Karen Migdail at Karen.migdail@va.gov.
