National Alliance To End Veteran Suicide

About National Alliance To End Veteran Suicide

Our Mission: To end Veteran suicide in our nation through research, education, resource collaboration, and community engagement. Our Vision: To create a network of committed, trained, and recognized volunteer champions actively engaged in addressing the alarming concern of suicide deaths among Veterans. We will impact this concern and provide resources to Veterans, Families and Survivors through the main focus areas of the Alliance. Mission focus areas: Research: Seeking increased data capture by mental health agencies, law enforcement and justice systems regarding Veteran self-injury, harm, and risk taking behaviors. Education/Awareness: Providing increased education to the general public regarding the issues facing young Veterans and Families. Resource Collaboration: Identifying supportive programs for Veterans, Families and Survivors and making these resources known through traditional and non-traditional media. As an organization we do not seek to provide treatment or intervention services but rather to identify and align with organizations and individuals providing those services. Community Engagement: Outreach to individuals and organizations with an interest in providing support to Veterans and Families. Provide supportive assistance to those seeking to establish community-based events/activities designed to create community around Veterans and their Families.
