 JD Foundation Program | Veteran Training /Support Program

Suicide awareness and prevention for veteran’s families and caregivers:

This program was designed for people who live with a veteran, who is a caregiver, or is in contact with veterans.

 

Many of the warning signs are alike as in our 90-minute workshops for adults. However, Veteran’s have more specific issues that many of us non-military people understand. For this reason, this program was developed with the help of a veteran suicide awareness and prevention specialist.

We have workshops that have helped others throughout the US understand warning signs and what to do if there person is showing signs of feeling suicidal.  This workshop had excellent ratings.
