Hour 1: September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month; what’s being done on the ground to combat veteran suicide?

This hour, Newell points out how Congress pushes meaningless bills, based on the title and not the content within them, for the purpose of moving the needle, salvaging their political party, and making their political opposition look evil. Then, Lindsey Gray, Suicide Prevention Manager at Wounded Warrior Project, joins the show to share how veterans and their families can quickly access vital mental health support, what’s being done on the ground to combat veteran suicide, and the simple, daily actions every one of us can take to support the heroes in our own communities.
