A single veteran suicide is too awful a price to pay, and we as a nation must adequately resource the veteran help lines and aid centers to pick up all of those homeless and those without hope to get the counseling/psychiatric care to deal with their condition.

There are currently 2 call centers. One in Atlanta, Ga and one in Canandaigua, NY. They are understaffed as has been evidenced by my wife working many extended hour evenings, in a VERY old VA complex. They frequently also pick up calls from the National Suicide hotline. Some will try to pass those off but when a teenager is about to jump off a bridge, and the National Suicide hotline doesn't pick up their phones....my wife, for one says screw it.. I'm getting somebody's child off that bridge and to safety. She's gone from home 5 days/nights a week to do this. Barb- Bravo Zulu! She'll retire next year. My prayer is that someone just as good and dedicated to our vets and the children, will replace her.
