Military Veteran Project

Military Veteran Project The Military Veteran Project is on a mission to prevent military su***de through education, training, and community-based efforts. It begins with connection.

https://www.militaryveteranproject.org/22adaymovement.html ​Founded in 2012, by war widow Melissa Jarboe to carry on the dying wish of her husband SSG Jamie Jarboe, the Military Veteran Project (MVP) a volunteer-driven 501(c)(3) nonprofit charity is on a mission to prevent military su***de through education, training, and community-based action. We believe su***de prevention begins long before a c

risis. With awareness. With communities that know how to recognize struggle and respond with compassion. We focus on prevention — equipping communities, strengthening protective factors, and ensuring no veteran or military family feels alone.

​Every day, we work to bridge the gap between military service and civilian life, ensuring veterans and their families receive the compassion, care, and resources they deserve. Our mission is rooted in the belief that our veterans are not broken, they are assets to our communities. Their compassion, integrity, leadership, and dedication strengthen the very fabric of our nation. ​

This morning, a wife, a mother, a father, a sister, a husband, a brother, a child is saying goodbye to their loved one. Their loved one who’s getting ready to deploy overseas, their loved one who doesn’t know when they’ll return or what they’ll face.
As you read this, please take a moment to send positive thoughts to those families and the service members who serve our country 🇺🇸

When someone loses a loved one to su***de…
…well-meaning words can help, but very often they hurt.

"Did you miss the signs?"
"They're in a better place."
"Shouldn't you be doing better by now?"

If you’d like to learn more about how to respond and how to show up for someone who has been impacted by this devastating loss, or this is a personal loss to you…

Grief After Su***de: Helping and Healing in the Aftermath is a new four-week course with David Kessler and Dr. Christine Moutier, MD.

You'll learn:
- Language that supports, doesn’t judge or correct
- How to listen and follow a grieving person's lead
- What to say and what to avoid with someone carrying this loss
- How to stay present when there are no perfect words
- This is for su***de loss survivors, and for the professionals, friends, and family members who support them.

This new course starts September 2.

We invite you to join us.
