2024 Conference
About
The health and well-being of the Nation’s service members and Veterans continue to be a top priority for VA and the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD). We are partnering again this year to host the Nation’s only conference dedicated to addressing military and Veteran suicide prevention. Join us for the 2024 VA/DOD Suicide Prevention Conference July 16–18 at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, Oregon.
Guided by the National Strategy for Preventing Veteran Suicide (PDF, 2.8 MB, 42 pages) and Department of Defense Strategy for Suicide Prevention (PDF, 1.8 MB, 103 pages), this year’s theme — Reimagining Suicide Prevention: Evolving and Innovating to Meet Diverse Needs — focuses on innovative ways to increase the reach to at-risk Service member and Veteran populations, especially including historically underserved and growing populations such as women, LGBTQ+, or American Indian and Alaska Natives.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
VA and DOD care teams, leaders, allies and subject matter experts from across the country are invited to come together and share comprehensive and public healthbased strategies to prevent suicide nationwide. Invited guests can join us in person at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, Oregon.
