Suicide Prevention Awareness

The consequences caused by Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) are unforgiving, and include substance abuse, unemployment, homelessness, incarceration, and even suicide. We must protect our veterans' brains and immediately provide resources for rehabilitation if they are injured in order to prevent the consequences, especially, the final consequence of untreated TBI: SUICIDE.
 
Resurrecting Lives Foundation is a 501(c)(3) based in Dublin, OH and San Diego, California. Our mission is to coordinate and advocate for the successful transition to a post-military career and life for veterans with TBI. An estimated 25% of US veterans who served in the Global War on Terror struggle with TBI - 750,000 in number and counting.
