  • Summary

  • In this episode we hear from Dr. Lindsey Monteith, a psychologist and researcher who examines ways to prevent suicide among Veterans and Ms. Laura Caisse, the Women Veterans Program Manager at the Manchester VA Medical Center. Our guests examine what we know about risks for suicide in the women Veteran population as well as ways to prevent suicide and what the VA is doing to support women Veterans who may be at increased risk for suicide.

    We would like to remind our Veteran listeners that if you are experiencing thoughts of suicide, you can reach the Veterans Crisis Line by calling 988 and pressing 1, or through online chat and text at 828255. Family members concerned about a loved one can also reach out for support.
