Preventing Suicide In Discharged Service Members: A Proposed Research Study, Kyri Barilone

Academic Symposium of Undergraduate Scholarship

We have designed this study in order to explore the growing problem of veteran suicide. Recently, suicide has become one of the most common causes of death among service members; however, little is known about how to reduce this growing epidemic. As a result, we have chosen to look into possible ways to reduce depression and suicidal ideation in discharged service members.
