About Prevent 22

Prevent 22 was founded in 2020 after starting as a group on Facebook. That group gave us a great platform for our community outreach. Now we are striving to improve on that community and providing resources so lives can be saved.

Our Mission

Prevent 22 is dedicated to reducing the number of veteran suicides by providing comprehensive support, resources, and community outreach. We strive to create a network of care that empowers veterans, fosters resilience, and promotes mental health awareness. Our mission is to honor those who have served by ensuring they receive the help they need to thrive.

What We’ve Achieved

  • One of the largest Facebook groups dedicated solely to allowing veterans somewhere to reach out when they’re struggling.

What We Hope To Achieve In The Near Future

  • Set up a crisis line for veterans to call and not worry about being turned away, or treated like the person they’re talking to doesn’t care.

  • Build a page on our site here with a list of mental health resources, and other resources geared to help veterans thrive in the civilian world.

  • We want to set up nationwide transportation for veterans to get to mental health clinics, or other appointments free of charge.
