What's up in public health this week?
In recognition of National Suicide Prevention Month, we’re continuing the conversation about how our community can come together to prevent suicide and support those who may be struggling.
In this episode, we’re joined by Lauren SinClair, Community Engagement & Partnerships Coordinator, and Shannon Teague, Suicide Prevention Coordinator, from our local Veterans Affairs office. We talk about the VA services available to veterans and their families, suicide prevention work happening in our community, and how individuals can make a difference.
