Military Veteran Suicide Prevention Study Identifies Gaps in Documenting Veterans’ Status Between Local and National Levels
WFMJ (Wash.) – July 9
America’s Warrior Partnership has published its first annual update on Operation Deep Dive, a four-year project currently studying the community-based factors involved in suicide among military veterans. The report presented the study’s progress and detailed researchers’ first key finding, which is that data on veteran suicides is not collected and maintained in a systematic method across county, state and federal levels. This inconsistent information gathering is significantly impeding the nation’s ability to fully measure — and, in turn, prevent — suicide among veterans. Launched in December 2017, Operation Deep Dive is being conducted by America’s Warrior Partnership, in collaboration with researchers from the University of Alabama and support from the Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation.
