Plans for vets suicide prevention training, new three-digit emergency mental health crisis line...

Great idea. There aren't enough people available to fully staff current "Crisis" lines. Do you have any idea what it's like to call and be put on hold? That I'm here to comment is evidence I didn't get asked to hold a 3rd time. I'd told my self "Once more". Instead of starting something new and spending more tax dollars on a "Program", incorporate all the currently existing into a Nationwide whole with a 3 digit number that connects to someone that is available with out "Can you Hold Please?" Then the money can be put in to things that will really help Vets and not pay a Bureaucrat manager.

I hope this goes everywhere a veteran resides. In homes, hospitals, under bridges and overseas.

Thanks brother Rick. Anything to help our brothers and sisters.
