Know the signs. Start the conversation. Be there when it matters. During Su***de Prevention Month, take time to learn the warning signs that someone may be thinking about su***de. Awareness and action can help save a life.⁠

If you or a veteran you know are in crisis, stand by them. Help them make the call — dial 988, then Press 1.⁠
