Veteran Suicide
In today’s episode, we are joined by Dr. Matt Miller who has a PhD in psychology and the current director of the Veterans Administration Suicide Prevention Program.
- Our Veterans Crisis Line is available 24/7, however, the number is the same as the National Lifeline 1-800-273-8255 – to get to VCL, we would need someone to Press 1. Responders are answering within seconds 24/7. More information is available at veteranscrisisline.net.
- If someone doesn’t need to call the crisis line and want to find the nearest VA medical center, Vet Center, etc. they can go here. This also has a national resource directory and the SAMHSA treatment locator.
- We also have a National Homeless Veterans hotline at 1-877-424-3838.
