Description
Summary:Suicide prevention for active duty soldiers and veterans is a serious issue in the US, particularly in communities that are home to these populations. A body of research has addressed the prevention of veterans' suicide with therapy and medication. However, few researchers have focused on the role of spirituality and religion in suicide prevention. This paper will address the potential for collaboration between mental health professionals and clergy in the prevention of military-related suicide.
