To improve the emotional & psychological well-being of veterans by reducing the levels of social isolation. The ultimate aim of preventing suicide among veterans.
Suicide is a national public health issue that impacts people from all walks of life, regardless of whether or not they have served in the military.
It is a complex problem, and it requires coordinated, evidence-based solutions that reach beyond the traditional medical model of prevention. Ensuring access to quality mental health services for those in need is one part of a broader solution, but not sufficient on its own.
The John Paul project is determined to reduce the number of Veteran deaths by suicide, saving lives by using prevention strategies that are based on the best evidence available, together with supporting both veterans and their families to join us all on the road of being a survivor who is equipped to deal with the complexities that life presents.
