This month, we are joined by Dr. Ryan Holliday, clinical research psychologist at the Rocky Mountain MIRECC for Suicide Prevention and Kenny Bruemmer, program analyst for Homeless Patient Aligned Care Teams, to learn about the intersections of homelessness and suicide risk. Our guests talk with us about why Veterans with a history of homelessness are at increased risk for suicide, how VA identifies Veterans who are at risk, and what VA is doing about it.
Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness are strongly encouraged to contact the National Call Center for Homeless Veterans at (877) 4AID-VET (877-424-3838) for assistance.
