As we honor the veteran community and recognize the challenges they face beyond their service, our Chief Growth Officer Laura Chevalier shared a heartfelt message shedding light on the critical issue of veteran suicide. Let’s remember, support, and reach out to the veterans in our lives, not just today but every day. #VeteransDay #veteransuicideawarness #suicideawareness #supportourveterans

Today we honor the brave men and women who have served in our United States Military. In the US, that is 18 million individuals, and almost 7% of our population. They deserve our support. To show our appreciation for this tremendous community today, we are bringing awareness to the veteran suicide epidemic. This is currently a battle we are losing, as we are not doing enough to address the dynamic challenges that our veterans face on a physical and psychological level, but also the social aspects of transitioning and integrating into the corporate workforce and social ecosystem. We are asking them to leave one community, in some instances they have known their entire lives, and enter another where most don’t understand the nuances of their experience or the dynamic challenges they are facing. Every single suicide compounds this issue because of the impact to their teammates, family and overall community. It will never get easier for our veterans if we don’t find a way to help. We are asking that everyone take a minute today and find a veteran, reach out, and find a way to support them in the coming months. A consistent check in, to show we care, can do a long way.
