As a member of the Military Suicide Research Consortium, I?d like readers to know four?things:
1) Your tax dollars now support a new research mission to reduce military suicides. Civilian applications could follow. Seven studies are under way; more are?planned.

While military and veteran suicide rates make headlines, thousands of at-risk soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines receive help, support and competent treatment within the military. We wish we could say the same for all our veterans, but it should be remembered that most veterans who die by suicide are not receiving services from the Veterans Administration ? the only health care system in America paying serious attention to suicide?prevention.

4) Lesson: Don?t wait for a solider or veteran to ask for help; if you see signs of distress, reach out, now, and offer help in any way you?can.
