Military Children & Suicide Prevention
This training focuses on the mental health stressors our military children experience throughout their childhood and adolescence. We discuss what you should be aware of as a military parent to foster a positive relationship with mental health with your children. We highlight the strength and resiliency often found in our military families and how that can play a part in protecting from mental health issues and suicidal ideation. We also draw comparison to mental health and suicide prevention among our service members and veterans and how suicide prevention among military youth relates to that.
