Resilience, Risk Reduction & Suicide Prevention
Resilience can be defined as having the ability to grow and thrive in the face of challenges and bounce back from adversity.
Director of Psychological Health (DPH):
The Director of Psychological Health provides case management and assessment for Guard members and their Families who are experiencing life stressors or psychological health challenges.
Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office (SARC):
The National Guard Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program reinforce the Guard’s commitment to eliminate incidents of sexual assault.
Suicide Prevention Program (SPPM):
“One suicide is one too many”. Our goal is to improve readiness through the development and enhancement of the Suicide Prevention Program policies designed to minimize suicide behavior; thereby preserving mission effectiveness through individual readiness for Service Members, their Families, and Department of the Army civilians.
Veteran Volunteer Program (V-VP):
The Veteran Volunteer Program matches dedicated retired Veterans to a National Guard unit where they are available for Guard Members to talk to and seek advice outside of their chain of command. They are informed of the network of resources that are available to Service Members and their Families and can connect them to the right service, building resiliency within the Service Member and the force.
