Where can you turn when a loved one, fellow veteran, or first responder shows signs they may be considering suicide? Whether you are concerned about someone else or seeking help yourself, reaching out is an important step toward care, connection, and hope—and toward our shared goal of zero suicides here in New Hampshire.
Did you know that a recent VA study found that post-9/11 veterans with traumatic brain injury (TBI) had a suicide rate three times that of the general U.S. adult population. These frequently asked questions help veterans, first responders, families, and caregivers understand TBI, recognize suicide warning signs, and find support in New Hampshire.

Learn what to look for, how to ask directly about suicide, and where to find help.
