Key Points

This resolution asks the House of Representatives to officially recognize September 22 as a day to focus on suicide prevention for service members and veterans.
The goal is to help people understand the mental health struggles that many military families face, including post-traumatic stress and depression.
By creating this special day, lawmakers hope to reduce the shame people might feel when asking for help and to make sure veterans know there are resources available to them.
This action does not create new laws or spend new money. It is meant to highlight a major issue during Suicide Prevention Awareness Month in September.
