Veterans, it's okay to ask for help—reaching out for support when you need it is brave and important.

During Suicide Prevention Month, the VA and the Ad Council have released two new public service advertisements (PSAs) as a part of the ongoing national “Don’t Wait. Reach Out.” campaign. The first is a new video, informed by and featuring Veterans and their loved ones, that encourages Veterans to accept help if they’re struggling and serves as a reminder that everyone ​can help​ support Veterans in their lives.

Additionally, the campaign has also partnered with Grammy-nominated duo The War And Treaty, which consists of singer-songwriters Veteran Michael Trotter Jr. and his wife Tanya Trotter. In this new PSA, the couple shares how Tanya supported Michael in seeking help when he experienced a moment of crisis, inspiring their song “Five More Minutes.”

Suicide is preventable and everyone has a role to play in supporting Veterans in their lives. Help us spread the word this Suicide Prevention month with the “Don’t Wait. Reach Out” campaign toolkit VA.gov/REACH/spread-the-word.
