Erie VAMC Suicide Prevention Walk
Posted on Wednesday, September 7, 2016 at 11:19 AM

Erie VAMC will host the annual Suicide Prevention Awareness Walk to remember those who were taken by suicide and to further build awareness of suicide prevention programs available to Veterans.  The walk will begin with a brief opening ceremony led by VA Chaplains and the Suicide Prevention Coordinators. Participants will join in a moment of silence followed by a walk around the VA grounds in memory of those taken by suicide and in support of efforts made to prevent suicide among Veterans.  Our goal is to provide hope to Veterans who may be in crisis and raise awareness that help is available.
