Mental Health

The Division of Injury Prevention under HHS manages the Mental Health program, which aims to train adults in Mental Health First Aid which will help reduce the negative stigmas of mental health. Participants will learn how to identify, understand, and respond to signs of mental health and substance use challenges and will learn how to provide initial help and support to someone who may be developing a mental health or substance use challenge or experiencing a crisis.

Creating a space for Veterans to connect, share experiences, and support one another during the transition to civilian life is incredibly valuable. By creating a supportive online community and providing valuable resources and support services, you can empower Veterans to successfully navigate the transition to civilian life and thrive in their post-military careers.
