Whether a veteran has just returned home, or served years ago, their experiences remain with them. Their wounds might not be visible, but they need our attention. Anyone who knows a veteran can help.

This is designed to be a memorable and quick number that connects people who are suicidal or in any other mental health crisis to a trained mental health professional. The 988 toll-free lifeline available to anyone, will connect people to the existing network of more than 200 local crisis call centers around the country 24/7, to receive immediate counseling and local mental health referrals. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline's 10-digit number — 1-800-273-8255 — will remain active, but calls will be routed to 988. The Lifeline supports people who call for themselves or someone they care about https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/help-someone-else/NATIONAL ALLIANCE ON MENTAL ILLNESS Mental health issues are especially hard for people with depression and other mental health disorders. NAMI, The National Alliance on Mental Illness has a 24-hour helpline: 800-950-6264. The relapse and overdose rate has increased by 30% since March 2020.
